Name the species!

So I bought 3 lawnmower blennies only to find that 1 was not! Any ideas?

looks like a mandarin, not sure of a black species

twinspot?

When I fed the others in the tank ( thawed frozen pellets for saltwater omnivores and carnivores) it eats it. No interest in the algae.

can you get better side pic's?

 

[PrevieAriz]

I know my pictures aren’t great. Sorry. It doesn’t look like the pictures I see of twinspots.

 

[PrevieAriz]

Hmm, better?

The head shape says goby to me, not blenny, but I am new to identifying fish.

 

[fishguy242]

i had one in my seahorse tank

Banded Sleeper, or Bullet Goby. I have one, very active and attractive fish, but he sifts and makes a mess all day long. I'm constantly blowing everything off w/ a baster, lol.

Amblygobius phalaena

Yes! I think that’s it! My arc-eye doesn’t like it. But she doesn’t like any fish, she’s such a *****. Lol

Thank you!! Hopefully, I got a more expensive fish for the price of the blenny I wanted and not the other way around! Lol
