FS: Tailspot Blenny & Cleaner Shrimp

[heuerfan]

Decided to sell my 2 inch Tailspot Blenny and 2.5 inch Cleaner Shrimp. Both are extremely healthy and eatting well. Reason for selling is because they are competing with my Mandarin for food.

Asking $40.00 for both or $25.00 for Blenny, $15.00 for Shrimp.

Here is a picture of the Tailspot from Liveaquaria, mine looks exactly like this.

Thanks,
Steven

Does anyone know if the tailspot blenny would get along with firefish, purple gobies? Thanks.

Steven,

Nice to see you on the board. I'll take them if lazibones passes.

Just a friendly reminder to those who have any SPS.

Tailspot Blennies are algae eaters and do grow up to kill certain SPS... mainly encrusting montiporas or acros, from my experience.

Awesome looking fish, I know, because I had one... but it kills a little spot on the coral in order for some algae to grow on it. This creates a source of food to feed itself when other source of food are scarce, but sadly this behavior eventually ends up killing the coral from rapid algae growth.

Don't see how it would compete with a Mandarin for food, though. Do you mean prepared foods?

Vance, I didn't dib, I was just asking a question, all yours.

I'd take the Cleaner shrimp.
