RIP Blenny

Today I found my LMB thin as hell and dead. Peppermint shrimp was on it, having an early breakfast.

This was a strange fish from the begining, it didn't eat during feeding times, and totally ignored nori. I have some algae in my tank, not much, but still ... he also ignored it. I thought that in time, he'll get with the program, but apparently his time had ran out... rest in peace blenny

it didn't get harrased, False Perc Clown and small Royal Gramma are model citizens. My guess it didn't eat. I had moderate amount of valonia, very little GHA, and some dense green algae (probably some type of chaeto), and cyano (which I recently nuked with RSR).
