but I heard 2 blennys in one tank is a bad mix, although my scooter is technically a dragonet and very sweet, I hand feed him mysis now!!!

well, I said "actual blenny" and as you pointed out a scooter "blenny" is actually a dragonet, not a blenny so I think you would be fine adding a "actual" blenny....look at the tailspot blenny, or barnacle blenny, great little fish with tonnes of personality and attitude.....I would stay away from the bigger blennies, like starries and lawnmowers as they can get to be about 5" or so...too large a fish for a 35g cube tank IMHO

yea starrys and LM blennys dont appeal to me anyhow! lol. I dont have a clue what to get,(thats why I asked) I had a tailspot, but I acclimated him poorly. only fish I lost, unfortunate too cause he was a tough one to find.

Royal gramma?

They are so colorful and beautiful.

are the damsels though? I thought I head they were aggressive?

damsels are the reincarnation of the antichrist.....I wouldnt put one in a tank that small....the whole tank would be his and everything else would be in his territory

That's what I was thinking.
