Is this a Starry Blenny or my LFS sold me the wrong fish again?

[Subnautica]

My LFS told me this is the Starry. I was thinking yeah maybe the fish is still young so it hasn't developed the colors yet. So I bought him. But when I looked it up it looked so much like a Black Sailfin. :/

Now what do I do? Bringing the fish back to LFS which is 25 miles away sound like a good idea? Funny because I also bought another fish and it's also the wrong one too. :/

Sorry to hear. The reason I asked was because Idk if he can live with another blenny, in case I don't return him back to LFS and buy another blenny instead

always a gamble. just stick to one.

That's a black comb tooth blenny. I had one and he was a monti eating fool. Hardest fish I ever tried to catch. Get rid of him as soon as you can.

A month eating fool? You mean he didn't eat? If so, yes mine hasn't eaten anything either.

Mine is a 75. On liveaquaria the fish is listed for a 30gal minimum.
