My Yellow (Gold) and Randall Assessorsj. A ton of personality in a small fish. Lots of fun wathing them in the rock work. Then the Lawnmower Blenny.

Starry blenny hands down.

Tons of personality, great at eating algae, and can change colors to match it's mood. Every one I've ever owned is so docile they eat out of my hand.

My wife has called every one The "Old Man". Because when they are super happy, they go almost completely white with bright white "eye brows", and reminds my wife of a little old man.

Stunning fish as a juvi, but just doesn't hold the same luster as an adult. IMO Quite a few marine fish are like this, kind of disappointing to be honest.
Yes I agree as adults they blah out a quite a bit. I got him at 2” and love the transition stages. As soon as he finishes transitioning he will be rehomed.

For me it's my melanarus wrasse. They're the perfect combination of attractive, utilitarian and affordable.

I can't pick one, the rest would get jealous. :rolleyes:
The trick is to tell each of them that they're your favorite without the others hearing. At least that's what I do with my kids and it's worked out well so far.

Just bought one yesterday! Algae blenny jumped ship (through egg crate lid) so improving lid. He’s already so friendly. A little too comfortable on my gyres which I’ll have to cover.

My 3” Lennardi Wrasse. Spent years looking for one and finally got my hands on one several months back. Love all my fish but this one takes the cake being so rare.
