The Midas Blenny is a captivating and vibrant small reef fish. These blennies boast a long, slender body in a golden yellow hue, accented with blue beneath their mouth and striking blue eyes.
Reaching up to 5 inches in length, Midas Blennies can thrive in aquariums as small as 29 gallons. They are known for their peaceful nature, making them ideal for reef tanks as they coexist harmoniously with other fish, corals, and invertebrates. However, in smaller tanks, they may show increased aggression towards tankmates.
With their engaging personalities, Midas Blennies behave more like pets, often swimming around the tank and approaching the glass when you come near. They are a favorite among fish enthusiasts. Providing ample live rock is beneficial, offering them a retreat when startled.
As omnivores, Midas Blennies require a balanced diet of both meaty and plant-based foods. Feeding them mysis and brine shrimp, small seafood pieces, and marine algae will ensure they thrive in your aquarium.
