Now there's an idea. I had a Midas blenny that was, without a doubt, the coolest fish I ever had. So much personality in such a small fish. I've been tempted to get another midas blenny but maybe neat to try something a bit different. How's their attitude? I know some blennies can be a bit territorial.

I feel gun-shy with these guys. I know any fish can jump at any time but my experience is these guys are adept carpet surfers.

And yes, I have been without fish for a couple of months now. I really do love my corals (okay, maybe a bit too much...) but I really miss having some movement and attitude in there. I've designed the new tank to have a ton of swimming room in addition to good coral placement, so I feel the need to have at least some fish in there. Plus, it gets kinda irritating when someone looks in the tank and says "there's nothing in here". Kills me every time...
