Description

Please note that the product information displayed is provided by manufacturers, suppliers and other third parties and is not independently verified by Petco.

The Flametail Blenny has striking colors and personality to match. This fish is enjoyable to watch while "hop" across the substrate and live rock. This hardy fish is relatively peaceful and active. Like other blennies, the Flametail Blenny will be peaceful towards other fish, unless its tank mate looks similar to a blenny. It is recommended that only one blenny be kept in an aquarium unless it is a mated pair. They will help maintain algae growth by feeding on it. However, for continued health, supply a varied diet of meaty and vegetable foods. Their small adult size of about 4" makes them ideal for smaller aquariums. The Flametail got its name because of their bright yellow posterior. The Flametail Blenny are found in the Western Pacific inhabiting rocks and tubes in shallow coral reefs.

ACCLIMATION: Avoid exposing new aquatic life to bright lights after opening the box. Turn off aquarium lights prior to floating aquatic life. Allow the sealed bag with your new fish to float in your aquarium for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than one hour) to ensure the water in the bag matches the temperature in your aquarium. A bacteria booster addition can assist with the addition of new aquatic life. Petco offers free water testing in store to determine if your water is safe for the addition of new aquatic life. DIET: A well-balanced diet consists of a variety of flakes, pellets, freeze-dried and frozen foods, depending on the species. FEEDING: Feed sparingly and no more than fish can eat in 1-2 minutes. Overfeeding can quickly foul the water, especially in smaller aquariums.
