#### Issue:
I noticed about two days ago that my Canary Blenny was nipping at its tail and occasionally rubbing against the live rock. Upon closer inspection, I saw that the top end of its tail fin seems to be missing (see photos). I've been looking for answers all weekend but haven't found...
I'm looking at adding a longnose hawkfish to my 75g display. I've read that they're hit or miss with bottom dwelling Gobies and Blennies. I've got a purple firefish, lawnmower blenny, midas blenny, and a yasha goby w/shrimp. Could anyone add any insight in this and recommend or not recommend...
Hello,
I've got a starry blenny that is a few years old, and he seems all healthy. But today I just noticed this on his underside. Any thoughts? It almost seems like a huge pimple with a blackhead?
So i already starting to buy everything i need for my easy low tech tank set up. I already bought a 60*30*30 cm(24*12*12 inch) tank, waiting for lamps to arrive, and also looking for tank gear in LFS'.
For rock I'm going to use live tank rock and sand. Sand and salt will be from Aquaforest...
Could i pull of a Tailspot and Linear Blenny in the same 40 gallon tank, i could barnacles on both sides or something, i also want a striped blenny but those are different enough so i think it’ll be fine
I'm thinking to make small 13.5 gallon(53 liters) tank with a lot of nooks, crevises and hiding places.
The main photosynthetics are green and red macroalgae (probably only one species of each, for example gracillaria sp. and caulerpa toxifolia) and maybe some coral, like xenia or kenia tree...
In this thread i wish to share my experience of trying to breed peacock blennies (Salaria pavo) and seek advice about raising the fry. Hopefully i can close their lifecycle and this can act as a guide for people thying to breed them in captivity in the future.
My pair of peacock blennies have...
Hello,
I just received a Bicolor Blenny from an online QT vendor. After placing him in the tank he went hiding in the rockwork, I finally found him and noticed a white spot at the edge of his mouth. Is this something to be worried about? (He has not come out of the rockwork to see if there's...
Let me start by saying, I’m new to the hobby. With the help of my friends who have had reef tanks for ~2 years, I purchased a used FOWLR 30 gal tank with 10 gal sump last Thursday. Owner reported tank had been up-and-running for 6 months. It came with two large black ocellaris clowns, live rock...
As the title says, I have a tailspot blenny that was being harassed by my starry blenny pretty consistently for about 4 days. I removed the starry blenny yesterday morning, as I noticed the aggression was not calming down. Today, (it’s late afternoon for me) I come home to the tailspot dead :(...
I have a tailspot blenny in a 40 gal, I have a starry blenny in there that’s bullying him to no end and I’m removing him asap. Im absolutely in love with blennies and I’m very sad I’m having to rehome my starry blenny but I’m not going to tolerate fish bullies. Do you guys think he could be...
Hello all! I have been looking for an ember blenny for while now and they are always out of stock. Does anybody know where I can find one. My lawnmower blenny suicided into my overflow and got stuck in my piping (problem fixed since then). I have been in need of a herbivore since then and...
I just got a blenny to try and help with some algae Issues and I am wondering if the sand has too much shell/rocks for the blenny.
last week I took about about 1/4 of the old sand but I did not shift through the old shells and rocks. Should I do something for the bottom of the tank?
Hi Everyone, been a while!! So I'm running a 32 Gallon Biocube (been up for a year and 2 months now) 2 Clowns, a paired yellow watchman hobie and tiger pistol shrimp, a blood shrimp and peppermint shrimp along with some astrea snails, 1 turbo and some hermit crabs. I got a Tailspot Blenny from...
New reefer here. I love the life of a reef tank so I finally started one of my own a few months ago. It is a 20 gallon tank and only has 2 clown fish and would love to add a Midas Blenny. Those would be my only fish in this tank. I have some hermit crabs and plan on just adding corals. Would the...
Strange question, but ive had 6 blennies jump out.
I have a lid, but someone they cheat the physics and jump.
Does anyone know why? I really hate how these poor little guys keep jumping out.
(1) Midas
(2) Blue Spot (one has survived)
(2) Red spot
(1) Lawnmower
Anyone else’s Bicolour Blenny have markings that show up under bluer lights?
I was really worried the first night I noticed this but he seems happy and healthy enough!
I have:
Bumble Bee Snails
Fighting Conch
Cowrie
Stomatella
I have cerith and nerites as well but I know what their eggs look like. The only fish it could be is a single starry blenny but that doesn’t seem right to me
