Orange Spotted Blenny

The Orange Spotted Blenny is also called The Redspotted Blenny or Red-spotted Rockskipper. It is white and red with spots of orange or reddish colors across its body. It is a great choice for a 30 gallon or larger aquarium that has a solid reef system with lots of rockwork. You should only keep one fish per tank unless there is a mated pair. It might nibble at stony coral polyps and mantles, but it isn't concerned by the other tankmates unless they are predatory. It is considered to be a tough fish when kept in an aquarium with a natural crop of microalgae that it can feed on. The Orange Spotted blenny will be inclined to consume microalgae in the tank. A diet rich in blue-green algae and marine algae (Spirulina) will aid in helping to make the Orange Spotted Blenny thrive, together with other vegetables such as dried and frozen food items for herbivores.   Approximate Purchase Size: Medium: 2" to 3" Large: 3" to 4-1/2"
