goby question

Get Scott Michael's Reef Fishes book and read it. It's just a handbook. It will have everything basic you need to know about most reef aquarium fishes. You don't know enough to ask questions this specific yet. Or just read threads in this forum for a few months. You'll get the hang of it.

And if it wasn't clear, mandarins are not gobies and they are expert only fish.

I have 3 blennys and I like them all..lol I know that helps you alot.
I have a Bi Color Blenny. Hes small and very active and eats most frozen foods.
I have a Orange Spotted Blenny, He eats the frozen Mysis.
An the new addition, Starry Blenny. Hes unique looking, Sits upright, and is very active in the tank. Best of all he eat most of my the frozen food but Loves the NORI.

In most tanks, one blenny is recommended to avoid fighting. If this combo is working, it's an exception. Get one peaceful Escenius spp. blenny.

That's a good book. I got it in our club's Christmas drawing. It had a great section with suggestions of what to put in what size tank, too. There've been a few times I've used it to suggest to people what to put in small tanks.

Edit: I think mine's called the best 100 fish, now that I think about it.

Yeah no mandarin for me atleast not right know I think I'm gonna go with a segmented blennie what you guys think of that one

Which blenny is that. I've never heard of it. Do you have a picture you could link to or a scientific name?

Good luck with your tank. And,yes, I think it is 100 reef fish.

Very jazzy looking blenny. You'll find in general that Escenius spp. like tailspots and bicolors are more peaceful (and smaller) than Salarias spp. like lawnmowers, starry and the one you linked to. Some blennies can be kind of jerks. But I do love the way the starry looks.

Good luck.

Something to keep in mind.
