Just wanted to report that after many months we had a beautiful bicolor blenny carpet surf despite a DIY mesh cover. We left a 3” gap at the back for HOB gear and maybe a 1” gap max at the front and yet, somehow, he managed to jump out. Conditions were good, he seemed content nipping at the rocks and retreating to his hole in the live rock. We’ve never once seen him jump at the mesh and only free swam to nip at algae or perch on a rock.
