Default Midas Bleeny Opinion

I want to add a midas bleeny to my 30 gallon tank. I know they shouldn't be housed in a small tank but the recommendation is 30+ gallon. Anyone ever own one in this size tank or have experience with it?

Also is 4 fish too much in a sps reef aquarium? i currently have 3 fish with no problem but I don't know whether i should add a 4th.

I had one in my 20G and then went into my 40G. One of the best fish I've ever had.

Yah I heard they are quite the friendly fish that's why I want one. Is 4 fish in 30 gallon too much for sps system you think?

A bit on the high side but not awful. What other fish you have in there?

Mine picked on new additions, but it is your last fish so should be fine.
