    Yes i do love the damsels, When my 225 is set up they will have tons of
    territory.
    Luckily those two are pretty docile. They seem happier with more rocks in the tank

    Omard that shot of your Bi-color Blenney is Beautiful.
    I'm Thinkin' i will try to get a pair of them based on that picture,
    Looks like lots of personality

    Aquaboy LoLz! now everytime I see him in the tank i will hear that song in my head,
    'Low. Ride. Er. dont get no lower"
    also welcome back from your trip :D

    Bicolor Blenny (Ecsenius bicolor) is a neat fish and great addtion to tank.

    But best not to get a pair or they will be constantly squabbling over best "perch spots" or "peek out holes." (May do so until only one left...:-/)

    A fun, almost "DR. Seuss" looking fish, that are intelligent, entertaining and active. As they seem only to be able to swim a short distance, it looks as if they are hopping rather then swimming.

    Mine stays perched in a little cavern at the very top of LR formation, watching everything going on below. Will jump out dart around for a bit the return to cave quickly turning himself around to go in tail first.

    Has several "favorite" holes around tank to hole up in periodically, but his home at top of tank is where he can be mostly seen.

    It will only chase of other fish if they come to close to favorite spot and not do them any harm.

    May be a jumper.

    Eats anything rest of fish are getting.


    Get you one! :thumb_up:
