COMMON NAME – Linear Blenny, Lined Blenny

SIZE - 3.5" (9 cm)

MIN. AQUARIUM SIZE - 30 US Gal. (114 L)

FOODS AND FEEDING – Frozen and dried food preparations containing marine and blue-green algae. It will also feed on and may help to control algae growing in the tank.

REEF COMPATIBILITY - May nip at polyps and base of Acropora sp. and other SPS corals. This blenny is not suited for an SPS dominant tank that has immature/small colonies as they can damage small Acropora sp. and Montipora sp. corals.

CAPTIVE CARE - Keep only one per tank unless a bonded pair. They should not be housed with aggressive species that may intimidate them into hiding.
