    Hi Guys,

    I think that I have decided to a midas blenny to add to the tank and haven't seen any in the local stores. A lot of online places don't have them or don't have particular sizes. Once place only has a medium and I was wondering what size you would recommend. I have to Clarkii clowns and a six line wrasse. One of the clowns is a lot bigger than the other and can be aggressive. Both of them even chase my six line around (which is pretty small). Their temperament is labelled as peaceful so I would hate to get a small one and have it be bullied. The small fish range from 1"-2" and the mediums are 2"-3". They have the medium in stock online. Thanks for the advice!!!!

    Regards,
    Ivy

    Oooh, I'm going to be jealous of your midas!! I think the medium would be fine. There might be some bullying at first but it should calm down in your tank after a bit. Just make sure you have a lot of hiding places in your rocks, because they like to hang out in those.

    When your tank gets filled with water that brightness will fade a little.
