Midas Blenny

[adamfajge]

I currently have a Oscellaris Clown, Flame Hawkfish, and a 6-Line Wrasse in my 46 bow front. Can I add a Midas Blenny without problems? Can they hold their own? I tried a watchman goby but had no chance and never made it.

Should be OK, assuming the tank has a cover of some sort.

Which fish are the agressors ? If the answer is all ,Then not much could survive!

Initial opinion is no. If your fish were that agressive with a watchman goby you may have trouble because Midas blennies tend to be very skittish and stress out easily when bullied. To go along with kingfisher what size are each of your fish and how big is the midas blenny? If he is fairly large in relation he would have a better chance.

I just added one to a similar setup but don't have the six line. My hawk has completely ignored it as have all the other fish. The only one i was really worried about was my Starry blenny as i've read plenty about these two species going at it until one dies. It is a large midas which i think has helped but there was no aggression from anything. Midas are shrinking violets, they can hold their own and if its just one fish that will be causing agro, i'd be tempted to try and just keep an eye on it. If its all of them i wouldn't add it.
