Description

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

There are few fish that are as entertaining or have as much personality as the Midas Blenny. They move very eel-like by wiggling their body instead of depending on fins to swim. The reef safe Midas Blenny generally acclimates quickly to the captive environment, though they will jump if startled, so be sure to cover their aquarium. An aquarium of at least 30 gallons with a good mix of open swimming space and rockwork will make a suitable home for the life of the blenny since they only grow to be about 6". Midas' can be aggressive with similarly sized and shaped fish like dartfish and gobies (including other Midas blennies). They are omnivores and require a mixed diet which should include finely-chopped marine meaty foods and pellets. The Midas Blenny is bright yellow with blue on their eyes and dorsal fins. They are found in the Indo-Pacific inhabiting the coral reefs in moderate currents up to 40 meters deep.

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.
