    They're actually dragonets, not blennies. :) Cousins with the mandarin. Do you have a fuge or a steady supply of pods to go with him? Scooters are more willing to except frozen or prepared food than mandarins are, but they still need some pods.

    Nice fish! I love watching them in the LFS.

    You probably have pods running around in your setup, they're just hard to see. What size tank is it?

    sex it...if you get a male and female together they will "dance" together once the acentics come on. Very cool to watch! I had a male/female once and they were so much fun to watch. The male would turn purple and puff up really big and they would "dance" together. One of mine died during the transfer and I can not tell what sex he/she is.

    It was so cute I had my nieces and nephews with me when I got them originally and the LFS workers were telling them about the dancing...they were so excited about that.
