Second pic is a choclate tang

My favorite fish in my tank. If the light hits his fins right they are blue

Are the colours representative of the blenny? I was wondering if it might be a stigmata blenny but I think they tend to be more red on black. (I think.) Very nice, whatever it is.

Yup, the WB is pretty close to what I saw. I agree though, very cool looking!

Me too (agree that it's freakin' awesome). I've been looking for a stigmata blenny for some time, and I'm still wondering if it might be that. (Another common name is "ember" blenny). Only thing is they tend to have more red I think? Check out this picture:


Here's a link to a thread on zeovit.com : http://www.zeovit.com/forums/showthread.php?p=70615


From this thread on another board: http://www.aquariumboard.com/forums/...arine/2395.htm


I'm not sure. The tail colour looks kind of right though. What do you think? Same blenny?

It looks to be the stigmata. Must be the temperature of the lights doing funny things with the colour.
