Since Scooter is gone...

Since Scooter is dead, I need a replacement b/c Lindsay is not happy. She really liked scooter. Any suggestions? I don’t know if I want to go w/ a scooter again, maybe a lawnmower or something.

If anyone has suggestions please let me know :slight_smile: The only problem i have read is that lawnmowers can nip and polyps and stuff… which I don’t want… but I’m not even sure if that’s true.

Sooo, any suggestions are more than appreciated so that I can order it asap for her :slight_smile:

Thanks guys!

Well, are you looking for a dragonette or a blenny? Scooter “Blennies” are actually members of the dragonette family, which puts them as closer related to mandarin’s than blennies. If you decided you want a blenny, which in my opinion have a lot more personality, check out a bicolor blenny. They stay fairly small, have interetsing color, lots of personality, and are always active in the tank.

Well see, I want to go the blenny route but its up to Lindsay :slight_smile: b/c thats who has to be happy with it lol. (And they do have a lot of personality compared to the dragonettes :slight_smile:

OO, and Size isn’t really an issue just for everyone to know :slight_smile: (Kinda why i like the lawnmowers b/c they get big but we shall see :))

starry blenny is my choice. active easy eaters, not aggressive like to stare at people.

never had an issue with my lawnmower… the starry’s sure r nice looking. the bicolor is pretty cool too. both have plenty of personality i think

Looks for pictures, or even better videos, of Neon Gobies and Midas Blennies. There are several different species that fall under each name which are nice color varieties. I personally like the shark nose gobies and the black Midas, but everyone has a different opinion. Should be peaceful in reef tanks and get along with most other animals and might fill in that missing gap the scooter left.

Oh btw the black and blue Neon Goby you see randomly at the top of the website is an image of my fish. I either lost it to a jump and never found him or posible an anemone which I still haven’t IDed.

Well… Lindsay was sad… So she went to charlies and got a Starry Blenny! It has such a personality, its beautiful, and very happy :slight_smile: Here are some pics!

Everyone likes him :slight_smile:

That’s a few :slight_smile: but we both really like him! A lot :slight_smile:

I was looking at that starry the other night - beautiful fish. They really are cool fish - mine will always find the most inconvenient places to perch, like my toadstool, monti-caps, power-heads, mag float.

Good luck - they’re a lot of fun to watch.

Pretty fish.

Good choice! We are very happy with our starry

Thank you everyone :slight_smile: He is such a fun fish to watch from what Lindsay was saying, and apparently he has quite the personality! And most importantly Lindsay loves the little guy :slight_smile:

Always loved them. Good choice.
