Default Tribal blenny
I got this cool blenny that I thought I'd share some pic.'s of that Doug took of it. He posted them in my tank journal but I know not everyone looks at tank journals so I thought I'd post here too.

Tribal Blenny




and a pic with the little dude showing some style and "flare"

Cute little guy. I've never seen one before. I assume care is the same as for a Lawnmower Blenny?

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

Ya I never saw one before either. It was the patterns on his face that made me really want him over other types of blennys.

Does he always show those patterns or perhaps those patterns are there because he is stressed out? I ask this because my Midas Blenny and Bicolor Blenny show similar patterns when they get stressed out.

Those pic.'s were taken shortly after he was first added to the tank last Monday so it's possible he was a bit stressed out and that's why the patterns are so noticeable. The patterns seem to always be there but I noticed over the past couple of days that they didn't seem as bright and noticeable as when I first got him.

Nice looking fish! Always cool to see different type of fish and what inhabitants make them unique
