Anybody has a recipe to feed a lawnmower blenny?

[Paolissimo]

I bought a lawnmower blenny, because i had a lil bit of hair algae and because people said they are fun to watch. He took care of the algae in no time, now my tank is seriously algae free. It is also very fun to watch, but he doesn't eat flakes, I been feeding algae strips made for tangs and angelfish. It eats it but, its a bit skinny in my opinion. What do you guys feed your lawnmower blenny
Thank you

Get ocean nutrition-prime reef flakes.. On the cover it has a flame angel and clownfish, after I got these flakes my starry Blenny eats all different types of flakes ,pellets, mysis, brine shrimp.. Try the flakes only 5$ at Petco

I've had great success with Hikari Algae Wafers... break up the wafers into smaller pieces, small bag goes a long way.

Man I didn't get any alerts when you guys posted all these replies, i am going out but I see these replies were entered yesterday. Why didn't I get any alerts, maybe spam folder?
Anyway thanks for the suggestions, he keeps grazing at the rock and he eats the algae strips i attached to a rock, so i think he will be fine.

mine eats the Hikari Algae Disc (as Widdy also mentioned).

He's adorable. I toss in the whole disk and as soon as it hits the water he comes out of his hiding spot and tears after it. He picks it up in his mouth and chews on it. He looks like a little dog
