Blenny ID?
I got this guy a couple of years ago, I never have gotten an ID on him. He is now about 4 inches, behaves almost identically to a LMB, and at times will get bright blue dots along his sides and blue stripes on his face.
Sorry for the poor pic, he isn't much for posing. Any ideas? TIA!

I though so too, but an image search showed many with grey tails like mine. A further search revealed that the yellow disappears upon maturity and may be effected by locale as well. Mine is definitely the Ecsenius namiyei though, because images also showed the blue color changes on the face which is apparently pretty unique to this blenny.
