I got pricked by mine two weeks ago. Makes your hand really damn itchy. Remember to feed them. They eat a lot of algae

They love Coralline Algae but will eat most other types as well.

They seem to prefer coralline but if there is no algae to eat I'm sure they will eat the green hair as well, a lawn mower blenny is better if you want to keep hair algae down.
