    black sailfin or starry would be my guess. if it has blue markings on the face it could be a tribal blenny. if it has a red lip it could be a red lip algae blenny.

    Thanks a ton . The pic was taken with my iPhone sorry .This blenny has a tendency to tease my clown and his anemone. Any idea if that's a trait characteristic found with this type of blen?
