That's so funny, I never thought of that until you mentioned it. He totally looks like he's ready to be shot out of a cannon.

From the research that I have been doing, they are great for cleaning up the algea but must be fed some type of alges based food after the algea is gone. There was one post here that states his blenny feasted on his soft coral. So beware.

yea thats what iam scared of or i might go with the red spot blenny that kinda looks like the lawnmower blenny

haha. mine has been doing an excellent job of keeping the rocks clean. sometimes I put flakes or mysis/brine in there, he will eat algae off the rocks AND the other stuff simultaneously. he is such a pig

but he is really good about avoiding the corals, he never touches them.

now that I think about it, the other day, I spot fed my candy cane, and a pc of brine was hanging out and he just looked at the pc, thought about it, and still didnt bother the coral. I thought for sure he was gonna grab it

My LMB is named Chewie, though he resembles Wilfred Brimley. He's incredibly fat like...well, Wilfred Brimley.
