scooter blenny.

I think mine is dead. Just looking at it little bit ago and my friend ask where the weird fish was... no where to be found. I dont see a body or a big concentration of hermits or the starfish any where though. Unless it died a few days ago over the holidays and it is just ate now.

Same happened to mine... scooting about one day, gone the next. Stupid LFS told me it was a beginners fish so he was plonked in a newly cycled tank.. poor lil guy didn't stand a chance.

I think I should have feed brine more often. I just saw it todays ago. It wasn't very skinny, wasn't fat but wasn't skinny. If it did die i think the crabs and star fish got most of it, small fish.

He was the talk of the tank whenever people came over. They would step back and say *** is that.....lol

I got mine about 3-4 months after the tank cycle. Just make sure he eats at the lfs. (mine never would eat anything but frozen foods) plus whatever he found as far as pods. But this may not be enough so it is important that he will eat what you offer,

these guys are great friends. plus cool to watch. You'll be stuck with his memory forever.

Lucky
