The Tailspot Blenny (Ecsenius stigmatura), also known as the Tail-spot Combtooth-Blenny or Stigma Blenny, is a charming addition to saltwater marine aquariums with its distinctive black and yellow band below the eye and a black spot on the tail. Native to the Indo-Pacific region, including the Red Sea and western Pacific Ocean, they thrive in reef settings and are reef safe, primarily feeding on algae. Growing up to 2.5 to 3 inches, they require a varied diet of mysis shrimp, spirulina, and marine algae. Tailspot Blennies are generally peaceful but may become territorial towards similar species. Compatible tank mates include dottybacks, gobies, anthias, cardinalfish, and fairy wrasses. Tank setups should include plenty of live rock and hiding spots, with a tightly secured lid due to their jumping abilities. Acquiring Tailspot Blennies from reputable sources like Saltwaterfish.com ensures a delightful addition to any saltwater aquarium, providing character and entertainment for years to come.
