So I have a 35 gallon cube tank it’s empty and I want to get a pair of golden nugget maroon fish. Would they be a good companion to a starry blenny or lawnmower blenny. I’ve heard golden nugget maroon are known to be killer fish. So I was curious if they do good with a blenny I don’t want them to kill the blenny.

IMO a 35 gallon cube is small for a pair of maroons as they get pretty large.In a tank that size a pair of maroons may be the only fish you can keep. I've kept a few pairs through the years but in larger tanks. My last pair was in a 6ft 150 gallon tank and the female took over almost half of the tank. I couldn't even place coral on the rocks as she would rip them off. I ended up rehoming the pair.
