Bicolor Blenny Ecsenius bicolor
An attractive blenny, interesting to observe and easy to keep in an aquarium with natural microalgae growth. Spends most of its time perching on or picking at the substrate and is usually ignored by its tankmates. May behave aggressively toward members of its own species, closely related forms or smaller bottom-dwelling species. May pick on gobies and firefishes. Keep only one per tank, except in the case of a male-female pair. May jump out of an uncovered aquarium. An occasional specimen may nip at and eat some small-polyped stony corals and clam mantles.
Feed vegetable matter, including frozen and dried foods containing marine algae and Spirulina. Usually will not thrive unless a crop of microalgae is present in the aquarium.
