I have a IM 25 gallon lagoon tank (dimensions: x 18 ×12) Currently I have a starry blenny and a banggai cardinalfish, absolutely zero aggression between the two. I think I want to get a pair of panamic barnacle blennies, would there be any aggression between them and the starry blenny? My rock scape has plenty of crevices and I plan to add a barnacle cluster for the panamics.
 
Starry blenny may not like the other blennies. Hard to say honestly blennies are so goofy
Very true lol, I'm leaning towards giving it a shot, my starry blenny mainly stays on one side of the tank so I think if I put the barnacle cluster on the other side they won't compete for territory. Their diets also differ greatly, starry blennies like algae but barnacle blennies are carnivorous so I dint think food would be an issue either. Does that seem right or is there a hole in my logic somewhere?

Nah seems good to me, I would just figure out which to rehome if it doesnt work!
