First post - I wanted to share this oddity of starry blennies spawning in less than ideal conditions and observations about the pair in general. This might be of interest to anyone interested in pairing starries. There wasn't too much information I could find on either pairing them or breeding...
Hello,
I've got a starry blenny that is a few years old, and he seems all healthy. But today I just noticed this on his underside. Any thoughts? It almost seems like a huge pimple with a blackhead?
I’m a little confused & wondered if anyone could shed some light or thoughts.
I always thought that Fox Face had venom within their dorsal fins, however of late my Starry Blenny has been what looks like having little nips of exactly that area as well as just in general. It doesn’t look like...
I have a large starry blenny up for grabs. He started harassing my new additions today so I moved him to my 10gal quarantine tank for the meantime. I can try to get a picture upon request but he's probably a good 4" and eats flake food along with pellets.
I'd rather see if I can rehome him...
Hi Everyone! We just got this guy a week ago and I love him so much. Worried he may have Ich. Any thoughts? He’s healthy and seems active and happy. Eats well. But he dive bombs and rolls in the sand sometimes. Thought he was playing but not sure.
As the title says, I have a tailspot blenny that was being harassed by my starry blenny pretty consistently for about 4 days. I removed the starry blenny yesterday morning, as I noticed the aggression was not calming down. Today, (it’s late afternoon for me) I come home to the tailspot dead :(...
Hi,
I’ve noticed that my starry blenny turns white everytime after he eats. Besides that he seems fine, been in the tank for 6 months. He eats like a pig but everytime after feeding he seems in distress. He starts breathing very fast and turns completely white for like 30 sec to a min. After...
Yesterday, I got a QT'd midas blenny that I had in an acclimation box overnight and none of my fish paid attention to it. This morning, I released it into the tank before the lights went off and my starry blenny is going after it. The starry blenny is significantly larger than the midas blenny...
My starry blenny is constantly inter my anenome like this and on more the one occasion I have seen him inside my purple long tentacle anenome he doesn't appear to be in pain or stress when he does it just wanted to see if anyone else experienced this or has any idea how it is possible
Hey guys 3 weeks ago i added a starry blenny it was doing fine eating on algea all over, two weeks ago when i added some clown fish and fox face it started being less active. It was purching on top of the rocks in front of the Power head that had me wondering About some paracite. But i read that...
Looking for recommendations on a blenny - I want a lively, active fish w/ some personality, that doesn't grow too big. I've been thinking of a lawnmower blenny, midas blenny, or starry blenny. The tailspot blenny seems perfect but I can't find it anywhere. It's sold out on every store online and...
I have 6” mature maxima clam and the mantel is normally fully expanded and clam looks huge! I recently added starry blenny to proactively handle any algae on rear tank wall, LR etc. unfortunately starry blenny started to perch on clam (fine) now nips and clam closes. Can a starry blenny and 6”...
Here's some backstory:
Me and my father both have tanks
I've been wanting to upgrade for a while, he decided his tank is too big and decided to downgrade
Now he's decided he wants out and offered me all his aquarium stuff
So basically my current stocking is a Royal Gramma, tailspot blenny, and...
Hey everyone I’m just being a little cautious, I did a water change today and right now I have two clowns and a starry blenny in the tank. Everything went well, later on I noticed something on the side of my starry blenny it looks like he scratched himself on a rock or something but there’s also...
So I got a Starry Blenny and absolutely love this fish. To say that they are incredible would be an understatement.
In my set up I only have 3 fish. The other two are a Black Storm Clown and a Black Clown. All 3 get along great. They are peaceful and that is how I like a tank to run.
When I...
Hello Reef2Reef! Long time lurker, recently active community member, first time build thread contributor.
Finally feel my tank has grown worthy of sharing, and I am soon to acquire one of my personal minor grail fish after years of hunting. Figured no better time to start a build thread...
hello all I’m on the hunt for live black worms sold on the island. Preferably Suffolk county but not opposed to Nassau thanks in advance. I’m trying to get a stary blenny to eat in QT
Ecsenius bicolor and Salarias ramosus compatibility?
Since they are different species they should work fine together, but I worry they might disagree because of similarities in looks. I have read one post where it worked fine after some minor squabbling.
Does anyone have experience with these...
I have two starry blennys in a 57 gallon reef tank. Last week I noticed the larger one had turned whitish from the usual color of dark brown/black. Yesterday I was using a magnet cleaner which I leave in the tank to help hold up a frag shelf when I noticed a couple hundred little translucent...
