Size : adults can grow to 5 inches Care Level : Easy Temperament : Peaceful Diet: Omnivore Origin: Indo Pacific Acclimation Time: 1 Hour Reef Safe: Yes Coral Safe : Yes Invertebrate Safe : Yes EASY CARE LEVEL.. as long as you have a mature live rock they will feed off of that .. or brine shrimp, live or frozen,.. i feed mine half a cube once a week. i'm going to start farming the brine so i can feed them live brine ....
i cut that cube 3xs .. so 3days out of the week i feed them, i try and give them more because of my emerald crabs and hermit crabs, they will eat and eat and eat and eat and eat .. so i try and give more so they can get full ... do not get hermit crabs .. their termites lol
I love my Scooter..i named him Scooter! Mine flashes his flag when i calls his name or when he wants more food. I've been feeding him Omega One sinking pellets from day 1 and 2 months later he started eating brine shrimp and mysis. He likes the sinking pellets the most and the shrimp when he's really hungry. I mix a small portion of the pellets and shrimp in a small cup and squirt it on the substrate with a turkey baster in front of him while feeding the other fish near the surface.
ŠhâwňTêň - Gaming They tend to always be out! Their top fin will raise up when defensive and it looks so pretty! They are great reef fish since they are so peaceful. I’ve had some perch on corals before just chilling 😂
hey is it okay to have a purple fire fish and a yasha goby paired with a candy cane pistol shrimp? Also will the pistol shrimp attack a scarlet skunk cleaner shrimp?
Simon Tay I've never seen a purple firefish pair up with a pistol Shrimp, but I see the Yasha goby with pistol shrimps all the time. I say definitely try it tho! And they are both peaceful Shrimp so they should not mess with eachother! Hope this helped, and thanks for watching my video, really means a lot!!
Simon Tay well what would worry me is say the Yasha and the Shrimp pair up. Then the purple firefish try's to get in their borrow, that could start some fights. But if the firefish went on his own there'd be no problem. And there's also the chance of all 3 pairing together!
id say moderate carelevel not like the classic mandy, i have a pair of them that eat mysis straight from the LFS watched them eat there and they still carry there mysis lovin habits but they do not eat pellets that is my next misson, ive have the classic mandys a few times ive only ever gotten one to eat prepared foods then he jumped to his demise 😭 i still dont forgive myself for forgetting the lid
laughs you have never seen 5 inch Scooter i have so many pods in my tank maybe cause i keep macro algae in my tank . they constantly bury him or her self in the sand .It readily eats pods brine shrimp flakes even pellets algae it is always exploring the macro algae farm i have .. maybe i got the holy grail of scooters its about 9 months old now . i tend to limit my cleaning as not want hurt my pods by vacuum them out .. most my minnions are 3 inch and less in 45 gallon 9 fish several snails never bothers them we call our scooter Tremor after we attempted to remove it from its old home 30 gallon tank it bury it self in the sand so we could not tell were it was at pods may be key my tank is over loaded with them .

I started to get one today and while I was in my lfs I searched TH-cam for your video and decided to leave Blenny in the store.
I bought one at petco and the guy told me he can eat alge now im scared because i dont have the pod things
Very old comment but still - look at the glass on your tank late at night with a flashlight. Most tanks have at least SOME pods.

Jonathan Simpson That’s so good to hear! A lot of people have trouble getting them to eat.
@@BrockLeonard definitely a challenge to feed.
I just got one of these yesterday they are funny little things
love them had a few.. so much personally.. like puffers
Can the blenny eat through solid steel?
Vegan Food Critic No? Is yours?😂
Brock Leonard You bet!
Vegan Food Critic Dude I gotta see that!!!
What are some unique features about this fish? Sorry if this is a year forward from the video but I'd really appreciate if anybody could let me know!

I’m an idiot! What pods?
Tigger pods, tiny marine life they feed on.

Ty for answering my question and i really appreciate these videos alot, they really help beginners like me :)
Simon Tay hey I really appreciate you asking questions and watching!! Made my night🤘🏻
Where can I buy a bottle of pods?
Noah June Check your local fish store or pet stores. Or order them online at places like reef nutrition.
Bro, you look like Tom from MySpace if he had long hair!
Hahahaha I can totally see it🤣
I got mine on pellets and frozen
Is the one on screen 2:50 in this video for the majority of the time female
