can’t get over black headed blenny. character design straight out of 2017
I love love love fang blennies because they can unhinge their terrifying jaws to reveal giant venomous teeth
But when their mouths are closed they’re just the Goofiest Goobers in the whole world.
No thoughts just Sit In Tube
A little tube gremlin
This little fucking thang is a yellowtail fang blenny, which is very well named because it is a blenny. with fangs.
Fun fact about them is that their fangs are venomous, too!
offered a new shell to the hermit crab living in this cubicle a few days ago, and today i noticed this tiny dot-dash blenny had moved into the old one!
another one! look how happy he is
Daily fish fact #856
Threefin blennies!
The family Tripterygiidae, or threefin blennies, are noticeably different from other blennies and most other fish thanks to sporting a dorsal fin split into three separate parts, two of which are very spiny! They also have serrated edges on their scales.
Pictured is the New Zealand topknot.
A weird guy (if anyone can ID him please go ahead).
Filmed in Japan. From Blue Planet II (2017).
i asked reddit; i'll let you know what they said probably within a few hours
could be a neoclinus bryope, or a コケギンポ (kokeginpo) in japanese!
second reddit opinion: my mom, apparently
day 171, 16/07/24 - fish of the day is the bluestriped fangblenny (Plagiotremus rhinorhynchos)
Daily fish fact #803
Forktail blenny!
It has venom glands in its bottom canines, and will deliver a nasty bite to bigger fish that attempt to eat it! They do not use their venom to hunt prey and instead prefer a diet of small invertebrates.

Favourite fish?
warriormoustache answered:
Very hard to pick a favourite because I love all fish, but I’ll admit that I do have a particularly soft spot for blennies. Particularly those from the genus excenius. Every time I see one I feel happy.
They’re just so dumb
This fish is having so many thoughts running through its head right now and none of them are intelligent.
Of course I am also fond of their relatives; the gobies, the mudskippers, the dragonets, but something about these tiny slug-fish always mange to make my day feel better
I could stare at them for hours
