nmojahed Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I KNOW, IT SOUNDS CRAZY but i have a 6 month old 16 gal nuvo and i really love this fish. I have a couple corals, a black clown (who is a bit aggressive), emerald crab, a cleaner shrimp and couple snails and hermits. If i cant add this blenny i really dont want to add another fish bc none of them really appeal to me (to fit in a small nano) but I was wondering if i could get away with getting a starry blenny. My lfs had a small one and i've seen some small ones elsewhere. any help would be awesome, and don't be afraid to call me stupid for thinking of this lol. oh and i have a decent amount of swimming space as well, not too much live rock occupying as of now. Thanks!! Link to comment
Angel<3Nanos Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Yes it should be fine. Keep in mind that starrys eat A LOT of algae. Therefore, you should always have some source of food. Link to comment

joy13 Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Keep your water changes up both clowns and starry blennies are high bio load. Link to comment
acrab78 Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 I have one in my 20 high and hes the bomb... eats anything and tons of algae in the tank... Had a little hair algae when I put him in and would actually see him tear it up like a pit bull.. was sweet... I have never seen another fish touch hair algae before... Great little fish. Mine also eats frozen food, flakes and pellets... Had my LFS feed almost every blenny in their tanks and my staryy I got was the most aggressive eater and also the smallest (at the time, I know they can get decent sized)... Was a win win. Good luck!!! Link to comment
