Most peaceful blenny?

Marsh980 · Jun 7, 2020

Hi all,

Can anyone recommend a peaceful reef friendly blenny. I’ve currently got a red fin lawnmower blenny in my 200 gallon but would like another.

I’ve read the Midas and Bicolour can be aggressive.

I also have 2 watchman gobies.

Many thanks

My Midas has never bothered any other fish or inverts in my tank. He found a hole in a rock that he made his home and has a ton of character. He is a pig at feeding time though...but doesn't boss around any other fish.

Older pic, but he's at the bottom sticking out of his hole. I don't know how he does it, but he's able to go completely into that rock!

Thanks for letting me know, I’m still probably going to give a Midas a miss just because I already have a fair few orange and yellow fish (yellow Coris wrasse, 5x Lyretail Anthias, foxface, firefish and soon a yellow tang.

I don't have experience with others so don't know, but my tailspot blenny never bothered anyone or showed any signs of aggression.

I have a Tail-spot and he is a card.. It is interesting how he can back into a hole in the rock or into a shell without banging his head.. so to speak...

that’s beautiful. I’m loving the black fish at the moment with my yellow tailed tamarin wrasse and marine betta. They Really show up against the yellow/orange fish and colourful corals. The bicolour and two spot look beautiful too.
