    I know that these are common and everything but he is one of my favorite beasties in my tank. I dig his eyebrows.

    You Know it! My Starry Blenny is one of my favorites by far! Very very similiar to your lawnmower blenny... They are great 'characters' with very emotive 'faces'.

    Does your Lawnmower Blenny Change colors like a Starry? The starry can go from completely 'whitish' to black over the whole body... and when he get's exited he gets like hundreds of little white spots in rows... that look like stars and hence the name.

    He rarely changes now that he's comfortable in his 'tank colors' but occasionally he will and its awesome.

    PS

    I looked it up and apparently your Lawnmower Blennies do have some color changing abilities as well...

    We should just do a giant Blenny thread...

    Here's one (not mine) I downloaded cause I liked the photo.

    Ya mine does change color, not as drastic as yours. My family always plays the game, where's the blenny, where's waldo is for sissies lol. Their faces always remind me of something Jim Henson would have made into a Muppet.
