Tail Spot Blenny

[Monkichi]

The tail spot blenny has most recently caught my attention. I'd like to hear about other folks experiences with them. It's a subtlety pretty little fish and heard it has personality like a Midas blenny.

It's one of my favorite fish in my tank. Easy to keep. It does have a personality especially how it hangs out and sleep in same place once they find a hole that they feel safe.

I just got one and thought I'd loose it in my big tank but it is active and really cool.

My favorite little guy. Thinks it's a big fish. Fearless. Knocks crabs off the barnacles and blows debris out at the crab. Very active and swims freely in our tank. Also sleeps with it's tail over our clown.

How big? I'm 210gal.

I have one in my nano, #1 personality in the tank. Very happy with picking him/her up, always seems to be a bit perturbed by something in the tank either moving in on the little home beneath the paly rock and knocking sand into it, or near its favorite spot to perch on the plating monti.

Same experience here.

I have one in a 220 with large angels and tangs and he makes his presence known. Fearless with a big personality.

I have one in a 120 gal. Great little fish. She is very social in the evenings and hangs out with the clowns for a bit, then swims with the gobies. I got a barnacle cluster from reefcleaners and she has one main seeping hole, then hops around to the others to check out whats happening in her tank. Highly recommended for a peaceful reef.

Latest addition to my tank. I love the little guy, a lot of personality. For a little fish they sure do poop a lot.

They have that sort of "What are you looking at" glance for sure.

I've got one in my 225. always out and about watching me, now i might not always see it but he's out there, just watching with his tiny beady little eyes. As soon as i drop some food in the tank, he's out right in the mix with the other fish going to town. Awesome fish!

I have one in my nano tank (14 gallons). Nothing bad to say about this fish, always out in the open picking algae off the rocks. Eats frozen, flake, pellets, seaweed, anything that floats by. Great personality!
