Recently I got a Red Head Solon Wrasse off of LA's Divers Den and he's a beautiful little but my Starry Blenny whos showed no signs of aggression before is going after him and is causing the Wrasse a great deal of stress. I currently have him in a acclimation box because the Blenny tore his back fin. Does anyone know what to do?
 
My starry blenny and maroon clown are the bosses of my tank; took no grief from my previous wrasses. You can try putting the blenny in the time out box to let the wrasse become familiar with the tank without any harassing. Additional feedings may help too, keep the blenny focused elsewhere. Also, what size tank and how long have you had the blenny?
