Pairing tailspot blennies

[Ben_n_Em]

Wanted to see if anyone has had sucess or failure pairing tailspot blennies. Is there any way to sex them. I'm trying to keep pairs where ever possible. Currently plan to buy two small ones and introduce them to the QT and DT together. I was surprised at how a peaceful fish like a mandarin can get aggressive with its own kind, and wonder what luck people have had with tailspots.

Thanks,
Ben

I have 2 of them in a 180. they have been best buds since day one. never any aggression, swim together, perch on the same corals together, but have separate sleeping territories. I added them together over a year ago. great little fish!

I've got a pair of Tailspots that I purchased from Diver's Den about a year ago. They initially bickered some over the first few months, but now have a fairly peaceful relationship in their 75g community tank. They are quite "active" with the female frequently leaving eggs in a barnacle and the male fertilizes and watches over them.

The male has relatively long streamers on his tail.

DJPB, did you buy them as a pair or just put two individuals together?
