Fish faces!

[digitlhaze]

Kind of a silly topic, but what are some of your favorite fish faces in the hobby? Cute, goofy, or just unique?

I see a lot of talk about colors, patterns, etc which don't get me wrong there's a lot of gorgeous marine fish. But I tend to gravitate towards unique shapes or faces.

(Probably related, here's a tailspot blenny I picked up a couple of days ago )

I don’t think it’s silly question at all.
I also gravitate towards cute little fish faces, and
Blennie’s have the most adorable ones!

Here’s my Starry Blenny. Unfortunately he met his end in a tragic powerhead mishap. I need to get another one.

Oh no! I'm sorry to hear that...he's adorable as well. I'm still pretty new to marine tanks, I'm rapidly becoming a blenny person already haha.

My Lawnmower Blennie. Got him as a utility CUC member, but I like him at a deeper level now.

Unfortunately she’s a pain to get a close up photo of her face, but I love the Dragonets - yes everyone shows love for the Mandarins (Synchiropus picturatus & Synchiropus splendidus) but I rarely see people liking the rest of the genera.
So far I’ve had 3 non-mandarin Dragonets and all three of them have the same adorable facial expressions.

I think I like my Neosynchiropus ocellatus the most though because her face reminds me of the red-lipped batfish (Ogcocephalus darwini).

Here's my tank bully. Out a school of 5 Bangai Cardinals 4 remain, 3 frightened all the time. This jerl killed one of his school mates the night they were introduced. He/she was found fsce down on the bootom fins torn all the way up her caudal fin. The bully chases the other three whenever he feels like it, and is also food aggressive. My only other fish in this 120 gallon if a friendly red fire fish. My CUC certainly didn't do it.

When the photo of the month comes up and the topic is fish, there are a TON of lawnmower blenny pics.
