Jeff.Tichenor Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 I picked up this little guy to help with algae control after my yellow tang didn't make it during the recent freeze and power outage. He's a great little grazer! At night, he loses his spots and gains white patches on his head; like some sort of camouflage with the surrounding rock work. Anyone know what kind of blenny this is??

albertareef Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 These are awesome fish! We have one as well and love watching him change his color pattern depending on mood/lighting/etc. Lots of personality and generally good citizen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My tailspot blenny also changes color/patterns at night. During the day his back is solid brown: but at night he gets this "X" pattern on his back: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
