Leopard Blenny- feed on what corals polyps

[Marineman]

Anybody has experience in keeping this blenny, known to be not reef safe, obligate polyps eater, wonder whether will feed on frogspawn or hammer?

Hi Bro,

Is a very nice fish. A challenging fish to keep. let us know the progress.

from the book mentioned ... mysid shrip, brine shrimp ,....(3 times a day)

...will feed on small-polyped stony corals.

more on this fish can be found on page 329 of "Marine fishes" 500+ Essentialt-to-know-how and this book is now selling about 48+ at borders which was selling 69+ last time.

corals type is Pocillopora spp mentioned in the book

cheers

It feeds on SPS... A very expensive fish to keep... lol...

But i guess it feeds on normal fish food also...

Thanks, I did a little more research on this fish, it definitely eats SPS and not know to be hardy and best let in the ocean, like cleaner wrasse.

I bought one for my fowlr now with a few corals like mushrooms and frogspawn/hammer, guess I have to observe. It is a beautiful and interesting fish which likes to hide between rocks and not so mobile. Never learn my lesson, I knew it is not reef safe but overlook when I decided to add frogspawn in my tank!
