Hey all,

I have a striped blenny and it looks like it bit my Watchman Goby. I have been having a hard time finding information on the venom in terms of if it's deadly or not to other smaller fish.
 

i cant think

By the looks of it, Meiacanthus venom is mainly used to stun fish and not actually kill them (Which is expected as these are a species that use venom as a last resort).
