I am sorry for your loss.  Was he eating prepared foods? If lawnmowers don't, they are fairly hard to keep, imo.
Losing a fish sucks...sorry again.

awww... I recently lost my scooter blenny so I know how it feels. Lawnmowers have to eat prepared food? So if I get one I should ask to see it eat first at the lfs?
Sorry for your loss...

Mine died too and I thought he was doing great on algae. We are going to get another soon as the package will survive the temperatures and use frozen formula two this time.
Sorry to hear about the loss of one of the all time favorite little guys to have in the tank

Sorry, to hear about your blennie....I have recently begun feeding mine some seaweed rubberbanded to a rock a couple of times a week... he just goes nuts for it. I was feeling like there was not enough algae in my tank for him although he is eating other foods too, flakes, frozen etc...
again sorry to hear about yours...
