Bicolor Fang Blenny
(Plagiotremus laudandus)
Plagiotremus Blennies should be added to well established aquariums with rock work for perching, hiding and grazing. They are hardy, active and can be a bit aggressive and territorial towards smaller, less aggressive tank mates. Plagiotremus Blennies are often found in areas of lagoons, seaward reefs. Provide a diet rich in meaty foods. Plagiotremus Blennies may pick at small fish or crustaceans. Most Blennies lack or have very small swim bladders. Be sure to provide an aquarium with a tight fitting lid as Blennies may jump.
The Bicolor Fang Blenny is also known as the False Harptail Blenny. Not usually found in the aquarium field. The Bicolor Fang Blenny has a beautiful blue head and front half of its body, with a yellow back half of their body. Bicolor Fang Blennies can grow to 3".
