Some of you may know and seen shots or our Blenny, "Benny". We have had him for years and had become more than just a fish to us, he would eat from our hand and was always the center of attention.
Well today we returned from a trip to the city and found that he when surfing on the hardwood floor
Here are a few shots just to remember our best little fish buddy I have. ever had.
......... Warren

RIP, Benny...
IMO, any kind of Blenny is by far the most entertaining to watch. They have a lot of personality.

Sorry Warren....
I assume you had no eggcrate or tops on

Heck no I never thought the Blenny would surf...... This tank is a Bow and crating it is hard to get to fit right. Plus I am one of those guys with my arm in the darn thing cleaning Coralline etc just about every day. Too darn lazy to take it on and off all the time!
Heck there has been a first class jumper in the tank for about two years (DG) and that miserable pod eater ain't jumped yet!!

Sorry for your loss.
I lost a Black Sailfin Blenny when we tore down our 55 and he went hiding inside LR. He got crushed by LR in the bucket or something went wrong there. Next morning he was dead.
We now have a cousin of yours, a Starry Blenny and he is a character.. almost like a puppy.

Did you ever finish that basement sump project? Last time I talked to you you were looking for a Sequence for it. Sorry - it's been a while since I've been on the boards

I'm sure it would be hard with a bow front. Again, sorry this happened to you.
