blenny

Hi, I’ve noticed that my starry blenny turns white everytime after he eats. Besides that he seems fine, been in the tank for 6 months. He eats like a pig but everytime after feeding he seems in distress. He starts breathing very fast and turns completely white for like 30 sec to a min. After...

I have this coral and this bi-color blenny that seems to love perching on my corals and I have even seen him picking at it as if he’s trying to eat it. My first question was what is the name of this coral? I only bought it a month ago and forgot what it was called but I want more. And my other...

A client of mine added a scooter blenny to his 30 gal cube. I’m pretty sure it has run out of pods now and the fish is in decline. I only see the tank once a month. But I’m not really sure how urgent it is or how to assess the body condition of the fish. Can anyone tell me if it’s healthy? It’s...

Hello R2R! To preface, I have an Aquatop 24 Gallon AIO Cube, and still have issues with green hair algae (I used to have bubble and red pom pom algae, but both types have died out over time). I recently had a bit of a snail die off event, losing 9 Astrea snails over the span of a few weeks. I...

As title stated, please tell me your experience

Hi all, just got this Midas Blenny and I think he’s stressed out (see video). Looks like he’s breathing heavily. Is he gonna make it? :( My other fish are doing amazingly out and about any tip on what I should do? Is this normal behaviour for a new fish?

do you all think I could keep an ember blenny in a 10G IM Nuvo? I have an in sump/AIO chamber refugium and I plan on it being the only fish in the tank besides some inverts, I have heard they can get up to 5 inches and that seems like a big number, just wondering on your opinions, can’t seem to...

Hey All! Super new to the hobby. Just “inherited” a 120 gal tank + fish from a friend who was moving. I’m looking for tips and advice as to how I can make the tank better. It’s a 120 gallon tank running on a fluval FX4 filter, eheim jager thermostat heater, 2 AI prime lights and 2...

Hi everyone. You may think what you’re about to read is crazy or a joke. Just hear me out and then let me know what you think. One week ago I added a starry blenny to my mixed reef (took me 3 months to find one locally). Main purpose was for him to eat some random GHA. Not a big issue, just...

Hi guys, I caught this Blenny at a seashore, but it doesn't look like any of those in commercial trade. Anyone know its scientific or common name? It's currently in quarantined before adding to my 10g tank.

Can someone please tell me the difference between the midas and canary blenny? Also, which one is more active and is always out? And which one is the most peaceful (with inverts as well)? I've also read somewhere that the midas blenny's bite is venomous, is this true?

Looking to put a very small Toby puffer (leopard or Valentini) in a 20 gallon. Only for a year and then will be moving and upgrading. Would it be possible to get a blenny as well? I hear mixed reviews on Blennies in 20 gallons, I know 30 is usually the minimum recommendation. Thanks!

So I recently got a bicolor blenny, and in the future I would like to set up an empty cocoworm tube in the front of the tank for the blenny to stay, but he currently has his little home in a hole in my rock, any suggestions for getting him to switch hidey holes from my rock to the tube? Thanks

So I noticed my blenny occasionally has a very bloated stomach, I'm not sure if it is related to this bubble he has on his fin, the bubble has gotten smaller so I took him out of QT but now seeing this inflamed stomach I'm not sure what I should do. It doesn't look like this all the time, but it...

Hi, my three spot blenny suddenly stopped eating today and hiding away in its little cave. It was breathing hard so I thought of ammonia rise. Did 20% PWC. Later on, it came out and swam like frenzy, almost hitting itself to the substrate. In that instant, I thought he was a gonner. I decided...

Hiya guys, I have a Yasha goby/pistol shrimp pair in my tank and in about a week a pink streaked wrasse is arriving. About a month after it arrives (whenever my tank is ready) I want to add another fish, either a royal gramma or a pictus blenny. Eventually I would like both in my tank, but which...

Hi all, For any Bundoon Blenny owners I was hoping for some advice. Since I got this Blenny 4 days ago I haven't seen him eat, I've tried flakes, garlic infused pellets, veggie pellets, dried seaweed on a clip, and enriched Mysis/Brine. I'm starting to get a little worried, but at day 4 he...
