Hello all!
I have a bit of a situation that I could use input on. My dear significant other surprised me with some fish for Christmas. One of which was a 2.5 inch Midas blenny, which is freaking awesome. However, I already have a 4.5" one in my 125. I've read a lot of mixed reviews on whether or not you can keep two and it seems hit or miss. I can't tell the sex of either but based on what I was able to read it seems that they may both be male based on the dorsal fin size. I have the new smaller one in an acclimation box and while the big one hasn't paid a lot of mind to it when it first saw it it got dark and did some darting and dashing towards it. The smaller one hasn't shown colors but does dance around inside the box when seeing the other. I can't really afford to let it loose in the tank because my scape won't allow me to go altering to get him out if it doesn't work.
So.... anyone have any guidance, suggestions, or input on this would be greatly appreciated. I know I could resell him quickly but I don't want to give up such an awesome and thoughtful gift.
Thanks!
