I just got a bicolor blenny and I haven’t seen him. Will he come out to eat? Or will he starve to death?
 
will starve to death for sure. how long has it been since u introduced it in the tank? what other fish do you have in there? they are usually bullied by tangs since they are both rock grazers.
 
He’ll come out and explore after a week
 
yes. that's normal. keep the lights dim. let him adjust. don't keep checking on him every 15mins. how did u acclimate it?
they are usually outgoing. you should see him soon.
 
A week is pretty normal before they come out to play depending on the fish. Keeping them in a in-tank acclimation box for a few days before releasing usually helps shorten this.
 

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
