About 1.5".

The blenny is Ivanka. She's kind of cute if you can get by that eastern European uni-brow thing she's got going.

IVANKA! It fits!

She's even got the pouty lips with her uni-brow

that's weird... do they ever "level out" or are they in that position all the time?

Maybe I should stop soaking the food in THC.

Yours or theirs?

 

[just dave]

Just theirs.

 

[crpeck]

Oh that's a relief.

We like you just the way you are.

Now to answer your question. That is their normal behavior. They are found in overhangs and around vertical structures.

 

[Blindside]

They look cool, but better in my tank!

 

[DrPeaches]

I have a couple of rare species in my tank that exhibit similar behaviors. Scientists have usually noted these fish in tanks using vodka for nutrient export

The Prone Orangeback
