Fang Blenny Aggressiveness?

[Nick711]

Can anyone share their experience with fang blennies and their aggressiveness towards tank mates? Several sources list them as “semi-aggressive” but it notes this is likely only towards similar shape / size fish. I am considering adding a Striped or Kamohara Blenny and trying to determine compatibility. Any insights to share?

Plenty of hiding spaces / rock work

I have a striped blenny and a harptail blenny in my 40 breeder. I like them a lot. They shared a quarantine tank and my fish guy said they were buddies and he was right. Not introducing at same time, could be different.

I also have a pair of percs, a quickly growing yellow coris, a possum wrasse, and a court jester goby.

No issues.

In person a smiths blenny is a beautiful fish as well.

Doubt I’ll have a reef tank without a fang blenny after my current experience.

I think they are awesome.

I have smiths blenny in my 34 and it's a model citizen. I also have 2 clowns, royal gramma, purple firefish, yellow watchman, springeri damsel, priolepsis cave goby and he pretty much ignores them all. Just cruises in and out of the rock looking for snacks.

Fang blenny are great fish, nice top swimmers and peaceful in the tank.
