he's wasting away! I saw him this morning and he's starting to look a little thin!  Anything to supplement it?  He doesn't touch anything besides natural stuff in the tank...no prepared foods!

Dutch, my Lawnmower seems to not want any of the algae in my tank. Seeing that yours has proved himself to liking the algae would you possibly let me borrow it or sell it to me? Just a thought. LMK

My first eat all the hair algae and slowly starving to dead without the present of hair algae.  My second don't touch the hair algae and slowly starving to dead.  Maybe it's a good idea to get rid of him before he starves to dead.

What kinds of prepared foods are you offering?  Mine goes after any food I put in the tank.  Have you tried Nori, Forzen Formula2, or adding garlic?

Nori is always available and I have a mix of pellets (green and red) and frozen foods as well! I've had him for maybe 6 months so far!
