Bicolor Blenny (Ecsenius bicolor)

Origin: Bali/Maldives (4 in.)

Bicolor Blenny, Ecsenius bicolor, is found living on several reefs of the Indo Pacific region. This Blenny makes a colorful and intriguing addition to the sand bed of your aquarium. Bicolor Blennies are also useful in the control of micro algae as it is part of their diet. An interesting note, the male of the species will undergo dramatic coloration changes when presented with a mating opportunity, turning red with white bars. Since Blennies are highly territorial by nature, housing multiple Bicolor and/or other types of Blennies should only be attempted in larger aquariums that can afford numerous hiding places.

Minimum Aquarium Length/Tank Size: 20 Gallon _____________________________________________________________________________________
