Ok.......last fish!(man , do I need an upgrade).... I had been really missing my bi-color blenny....loved how they behave and the attitude....so I broke down and took this guy home....Hes the only fish Ive ever been able to get a (somewhat) decent picture of....Im not sure exactly what kind of blenny he is....looks very similar to a lawnmower, but Ive never seen a lawnmower with red on the dorsal fin like this one.....this one also has small metallic blue spots along the lateral line....Ive been looking on line and havnt been able to figure him out.... They came to us as a starry blennies or seaweed blennies....but its clearly not either one....

Looks just like my last lawnmower blenny. He was so fat he looked like a marble with fins.

My LMB has the red-tipped dorsal fin as well. i have seen them called numerous names such as the Sailfin Blenny, Algae Blenny, Jewelled Rockskipper. All the same fish: (Salarius fasciatus); and they are pretty cool little guys.

I wonder if there are differences in color and patterning due to where they are collected?....Every other LMB Ive seen has been much lighter in color and has never had the red in the dorsal fin which is why I may be mis-identifying him....mine even looks way different from the one that is in one of our big coral tanks at the shop....oh well....doesnt matter really...still a very cool fish IMHO....It hasnt taken long for the little guy to think he is the king of the castle....I saw him take a bite at my much bigger regal tang(who was beside himself with anger)....funny as heck.

Well lookie what I found in the tank.....right, smack dab in the middle of what used to be a large patch of palys.....the palys had been receding a bit but I thought this was due to a recent move where I put them under an overhang....big sucker....wonder how long its been in the tank?....wonder if there are any more?
