Paring up Blenny's

I am setting up a new 30G reef and thought about attempting to pair up two Tail-Spot Blennies (Ecsenius stigmatura). I know that unless you have a large tank its not a good idea to have more than one blenny of similar species. BUT...obviously they do get together sometimes. Is is possible to have a mated pair of Tail-Spots? I have never seen a pair offered anywhere. If I were to try, what would I do? Get several and see if any paired up? Or.... is this just not really a risky (read stupid) idea?

You don't see them offered much because it's not a big moneymaker. You can try, but I don't know much about pairing blennies; the fish breeding forum might be able to help.
 
There is a older thread about Tail-spots and I recall someone getting a pair. Unfortunately I can't remember the dtails and could not locate the thread with a quick search. I'm fairly sure the member was Kinetic but not positive. Maybe he'll see this and chime in.
