Just got him yesterday, and today he's up and about noshing algae...I see one eye looking at me through some hole in the rock, a shy little scamper up onto a rock knoll, and gone again.
In the tank with him, amicably [well, except the ywg, who blusters] dartfish, chromis [1], court jester, 2 highfin gobies, mandarin.
Caution: extremely shy and might never even come out of hiding near more aggro type fish. Retreats from a fight, circles around and goes on eating algae, behavior like a lawnmower blenny, but less forthcoming. Do not get this fish if he will not have a quiet environment. Size: about 1 1/2 inches. Source: Foster & Smith.
Observed to eat: red algae and cyclopeeze.
Cuteness factor: over the top. 'Eyebrows', blush on cheeks and electric blue stripe from eye down side make his coy looks and head-ducks just way much.
I hope like everything he does well.
