Do i have enough room for a LMB??

[Reef_Me]

Hey guys i was just curious if i had enough room in my tank and compatible fish for a LMB because I would love a fish that would eat my nuisance algae.. I have a 29gal reef tank with 2 ocellaris clowns, 1 blue damsel, 1 hawkfish, and 1 six line wrasse. Does anyone think my bio load would be too big if i added one more?

No a large mouth bass is fresh water and needs a BIG tank. Sorry I couldn't resist.

IMO you are already pushing things with the current stock list... time for a bigger tank.

Ya better to fight with clean up crew.

Ditch the damsel and go for it!!!

I read this yesterday and it took me this long to realize that LMB was lawnmower blenny. Large Mouth Bass was as good a guess as any.

I think you could add it.

Best way to battle nuisance algae. Manual removal, fight phosphates, reactors, nutrient export.

This. The LMB's I've had only scraped the film algae on the glass, never touched anything else. HTH.
