Could these two do well together in a 75 gallon, (3’ long X 2’ wide). I’ve researched here and most answers say no for smaller tanks, but will there be room enough in this size that they can have their separate territories?

midas will likely outgrow the starry blenny. it'll all depend on their individual personalities. the size of tank could help deter aggression, or not :/.
 
I've never done with a starry, but I had a lawnmower blenny and a midas blenny together for years. I just saw this post was over a year ago and recently revived. Oops! Haha

I had the 2 I mentioned together for ~3 years, and they were introduced separately. Introduced together as long as you have a lot of hiding spots (midas blennies LOVE a good hole they can fully tuck into) and plenty of rockwork / algae I would expect success, but it can always get a little testy between blennies sometimes
