New family member - Midas Blenny

[SBJim]

Very cool fish, IMO.

very pretty

I have one myself. They are awesome little guys. Real cool to watch swim.

 

[coralGoodie]

what do they eat?

 

[spline9]

Mine will eat anything. Mostly carnivore stuff.

 

[SBJim]

Quite the pig. Does seem to like carnivore stuff better than herbivore. E.g. eats spirulina flakes, but not with the same zeal as everything else (formula 1 pellets, frozen blend, OSI flakes). I am a little concerned that my clowns aren't getting enough to eat, as they tend to shy away from the Midas.

I feel fortunate: she's picked a very visibile spot as her primary at-rest location (1st. pic).

they are great fish a little aggressive I have one in my FO tank.

 

[XeniaMania]

Mine is great too. Aggressive? Not mine, it "kisses" my Sailfin when they both go for the same piece of food. Mine eats everything, algae on rock, nori, shrimp, pellets, orange, grapefruit, it's edible in the tank, it'll eat it.
