Seahorse move so slowly that they sometimes grow a bit of algae on their body plates. That's probably what is attracting the blenny. It unfortunately is not a fun experience for the seahorses to have a big fish (to them) sucking algae slime off their sides. I had to get rid of my lawnmower blenny out of my old seahorse tank because of the same issue.
