These guys have way too much personality. Can’t believe I hadn’t added them to the tank earlier. The way they peak out of their hidy-holes is hilarious, and the speed they display when chasing food is ridiculous.

Anyone else a fan of these little guys?

I mean.. how can you not be? I never knew these existed until now. Nice fish!
 
One of my favorite fish! I would love to do a species only tank with them some day. . . I had one in the past, and they do have a ton of personality. . . unfortunately mine decided to jump out of the tank while I was away at work.
 
Love these guys. Had one a few years ago and despite being the smallest fish in a 75g, it was by far my favorite. Just wish they had a longer lifespan.

My LFS used to get a few throughout the year but they've become much more rare over the last few years. Believe it or not the most reliable place I've found to get them now is the Petco website.

Wow thats nuts. I love blennies!
 
I’m big on quarantining (and am lazy) so I get all of my fish from DrReef. He has these little guys, but at a premium.

Best price I’ve seen is SaltyUnderground - but they don’t have them in stock often.
 
will these guys be ok with a tail spot blenny?
