Lawn Mower/Scooter blenny

[Chris S]

Will a Lawn mower and scooter blenny get along in a 80 gal.Tank?Have about 120 LR

 

[Desolas]

Yes, they shouldn't be a problem. They do not look alike, so they won't be aggressive towards one another.

Even if there is an issue with that size of tank and that much LR the scooter will have all kinds of places to hide.

Yup, shouldn't be a problem.

I love Scooter blennies! I've always wanted to have a pair of red ones but sheeesh, getting them to hold still so I can compare their dorsal fins has been a challenge

 

[Solov]

Can you elaborate on pairing Blennies, please?

Dorsal fins and so subjective indication... I have Blenny for 8 months now and every time I'm trying to decide whether his fin is higher then the rest I'm changing my mind Is there any other indication?

 

[Wolfesbane]

IME, the female's dorsal folds neatly and stays completely along the spine. The male's is quite a bit longer when folded and usually droops toward one flank. I know dorsal size applies to dragonets like scooter blennies, but I'm not sure it applies to all blennies though.
