Does anyone breed Midas Blennies? Or tried to breed Midas Blennies? They are such a super fish, I hte to think they have to be taken from the ocean.
Midas Blennys Aquacultured?

I haven't heard anybody breeding them. They come from such a small area in the Indo-Pacific that their availability is not huge. I've tried to figure out if there is any difference between a male and a female. I'd love to have 2 of them. They have so much personality and they are extremely beautiful to watch.

Theres a LOT of fish we havent even begin to figure out how to breed.

You may want to order online. None of my LFS's were able to order them as they were never on their list. You'll be up for a long wait. I waited for a good 3 months and then ordered online. 3 different online stores that listed them *in stock* ended up not having them after all and refunded my money. I've gotten both of mine from the same vendor.

Thanks for the advice. I ended up settling for 2 chromis like last week, so once an opening in my tank comes up, Ill order online. Could you PM me who you got em from?

Nope, they breed Canary Blennies and those are completely different.

(I think it is OK to post this link as I didn't see advertisements or items for sale.)
There is an individual who has a pair of Midas Blennys that have bred several times. It turns out they lay sticky eggs. The larva are very tiny and very difficult to feed. He hasn't gotten any to adult yet
It is a heck of a lot of work!
