My yellow kole eye chases my starry blenny around and wont let him come out of the rocks?? I would not normally worry about this but my blenny doesn't seem to get to eat. The tang has been doing this for about a month. I am starting to wonder if I should pull the tang??

How big is the tank?

I'm surprised it's not the other way around!

Put a mirror up against one side of the tank. The tang should direct its aggression away from the blenny until they both settle in with each other.

My yellow eye kole is a bit of an ****** as well.
 
The kole eye is the only tang in the tank.. I was thinking about getting another bigger tang in there to maybe help settle him down. All my other fish are so calm??
 
Do the mirror- I do it every time I add an additional tang for a few days. Works.
 
Mine was a dick with a Diamond Goby, a pretty big one too. Just used to dive bomb it when it wasn't paying attention. Never interfered with feeding, but she ticked the Goby off. I ended up pulling the Goby, not due to this, but he started seriously burying corals. Almost killed a really big Space Invader Pectinia.
 
I like the idea of the mirror. Should keep him busy flashing at himself and give the others a break to rest and recoup.

Please take a photo of him flashing in front of a mirror.....i kind of want to see this.
