AWESOME ! I don't really see that Blennies are all that ugly. A bit googly-eyed but attractive enough in their coloring and personality to make up for their "shortcomings", LOL !
Here's one of our scooter, we've had it close to a year, it is so cool, I know it doesn't have all the cool colors but it makes up for it in personality, I tried to get one of it showing off it's back fin which has beautiful colors but it was too interested in searching out copepods.
The next pic is called a brown cheek blenny, they stay very small and this one in particular stays in this hole, problem is it's occupied by a bristle worm that I think showed him he doesn't want to be his room mate anymore, I'm hoping the thorns or needles or what ever they are that are around his eye end up falling off because there is no way he will let me anywhere near him. He lives in our sons 5 gallon tank, he is the only fish and we've had him for quite a few months now, he will eat brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, and believe it or not flake, oh and also copepods.
i just picked up a red scooter blenny yesterday. I was wondering what they eat. Do they eat frozen brine shrimp, frozen mysis shrimp, flake food, or do they require live food such as copepods. I have a 30 gallon FO tank with a very small amount of live rock in my tank will the fish just starve if i leave him in there. I havnt seen him eating yet i have tried flake food and frozen brine shrimp. I am going to try frozen mysis shrimp today. Is there anything else i could feed him or will he eventually come around to eating. If he just eats copepods i will probably have to bring him back to the lfs because i dont have any in my tank. any informations will be appreciated.
Our scooter blenny eats, mysis, brine, copepods and will also eat Sweetwater Zooplankton. Would love to see the pic of yours, aren't they cool to watch it's like they glide in the water and can really zip. Ours is in a 29 but we have a lot of LR and a HOB refugium.
