Scooter Blenny

[hgbarwick]

I am intrestid in getting a scooter blenny? Should I put him in my 12 gallon or 90 gallon? Curret stock list

12 gallon
1 Black Ocellaris Clown 1.5 inches
1 Bicolor Blenny 1.5 inches

My Bicolor Blenny will be put in my 90 gallon when he gets to big. Will my Bicolor Blenny fight with him?

Don't the scooters fall along the lines of a Mandarin. I think they eat pods as their primary food source. If thats the case I would have to say the 90gal for sure.

The scooter is actually a dragonette, and eats pods. You should have either a very active couple of rock piles/brooderies, a refugium, or you should supplement. They're more adaptive than mandarins, but much more so, and will starve.

OK then 90 gallon it is. I will have to do some more reasearch.

You may be able to try fish roe. Here is a thread about it. I use it on my mandarin and he does love it. First time it landed by him he ate it and has never stopped.
