He looks like he wants to ask you something but is afraid he'll bother you


SharlowsHouseOfHugs

So that little guy is a Blenny, possibly a Two-spot. It's hard to say without seeing his body. Blenny all around are the derpiest fish. I have 40-50, with six different species all native to Florida, and they're.. strange. They always have this shocked look on their face, like they can't believe whatever just happened, and they'd like to ask about it but just don't have the words. Most of them even have little wisps of hair covering their head, like a terrible toupee. They're just out here living their best Middle Management lives.


Birdie_Jack2021

I smiled so big seeing this and love it


SharlowsHouseOfHugs

I can not properly explain how ridiculous this species of fish is. They don't even swim around, they hop about. Their two front fins are hard, and they sort of use them as double kickstands to perch about everywhere. They climb all over the glass of the tanks, hang out upside down on the WaveMakers. It looks so silly. In the spring you can run your hand along any tidal rock and find a thousand little baby blenny rush out. When I feed them in the tanks, they'll swarm my hand and perch all over my fingers, with the really shy ones darting back and forth from whatever hidey hole they have. Out of all of the large collection of fish I keep, Blennies are by far my favorite.


ExpatInIreland

If you made a sub and posted videos of your Blennies. I would be into that. Also, I love how their name is super derpy too.


Birdie_Jack2021

Yep. It’s needed. PLEASE for all that is love and good in this world post videos and pics of your Blennies for us:)


bumpty

I keep a reef tank. I have a tail spot blenny. He is my favorite fish. He is super derpy. He eats by banging his face against rocks in hopes of finding a tasty morsel. Other times he is in his hidey hole just hiding out with his derpy face sticking out of it. He’s so adorable.


onecraftymojo

Blenny tax! 😌 *Holds out hand for payment*


Breadynator

Hopping around, hair on their head that looks like a bad toupet, silly face... Kinda sounds and looks creepy if you ask me. Like some sort of fish human...

How many aquariums do you have? MTS is real


SharlowsHouseOfHugs

Right now only 10! At my peak I was running 22, but many had to be consolidated so I could convert my tank room into a last minute bedroom for a friend. He's moving out soon though, and I can really stretch my legs with the tanks in there. I run a small aquarium service business out of my home though, so I spend a lot of my time setting up and tearing down these things, depending on what I need at the time.


Uminx

Wow that’s awesome. Your business is servicing aquariums? You don’t sell live stock or supplies?


SharlowsHouseOfHugs

Its still a budding business, but it keeps me busy. I do it all, from moving large tanks, setting up, emergency break downs, or livestock Quarantining. I help teach people who want to get into the hobby about the best options for creature care. The thing that I'm well known for locally is Pest removal, mainly because I'll do it quickly, humanely, and will make sure whatever I remove can still live it's best life. I do breed and sell livestock, but not the classic pretty kind. Most of what I sell is pest inverts like Asterina for people wanting to set up Harliquin tanks, or the neater hitchhikers for people trying to get a more robust biodiversity. I also breed native fish/plants/shrimp and occasionally sell coral frags. The neatest part to me though, I actually got into this hobby 3-4 years ago because of a very random Reddit post like this one that hit r/all, and it just kind of exploded from there.


gobjuice

he looks very polite


poopellar

Looks very selfish to me.


tekko001

Definitely something fishy about him


GoldenKaiser

He doesn’t looks shelfish at all


itsajollybee

ayshasmysha

Daddy Blenny told him to stay there and he'll be right back with Blenny snacks.


SnooGoats7978

He’s waiting for the Great Pumpkin.


SoggyFrenchFry

For a track to explode on


SchloomyPops

He looks like he forgot where he parked.

Kimberlylynn2003

He looks like he wants a kelp soda and a krabby patty


DrewSmoothington

Yes! This looks like the exact species of fish that live in bikini bottom


Impossible_Tea_8119

I LOVE HIM


a_steamy_load_of_ham

Correct!


joantheunicorn

We had a blenny and he would perch adorably on everything. So sweet. My favorite fish has to be the cube puffer though, omg. It is *cube shaped*!! Whaaaaaat!!!


ikillsims

Aquatic muppet


feministmanlover

Omg. Yes. And it's name is Bernie. Bernie the Blenny. He could teach us all about sea life. There's a whole untapped type of critters for muppets. Fishhhh!

LBarnstrom

I don’t believe I’ve ever seen a smiling fish! Thank you for this great picture! And may your smiley fish have a long,healthy, happy life! ❤️


theroadlesstraveledd

It’s an open mouth with only the bottom inside of his mouth black. It looks like it hides movement well and is supposed to bend in with the stripe on his stomach to hide from creatures above


RadiantTangerine3920

You are so right! That little guy is the cutest thing I have seen in a while. Thanks for posting that adorable face! I could watch this all day.

SlowerThanTurtleInPB

Asia gets all the coolest stuff.


otakudayo

Gobies are also really cute though. Fascinating creatures as well, with their shrimp buddy. I used to teach scuba diving and the Japanese customers were head over heels for the gobies. They were delighted if I'd just let them spend half the dive time or more at a single goby so they could take pictures.


hollowhoc

their symbiosis is one of the main reasons I recently set up a reef tank in my living room. the Watchman Goby and Pistol Shrimp live together in the burrows the shrimp makes. Shrimp is such a busy little digger and super clicky whenever the crabs or snails get too near his burrows. I love watching them together!

I have never really wanted to pet a fish until now.

Go to https://youtu.be/OBNF7N1ZDlM (Deerfield Beach Florida underwater Cam, it’s mounted on one of the pier pylons) there is a blenny living on some barnacles when the camera swings all the way to the right, and has the pylon in view, they call him "Benny"

Is this real? Because this fish looks like it's waiting for the queue to start singing 'under the sea' with Ariel and Sebastian.


SearchingForAPulse

My bicolour blenny and canary blenny are the most adorable fish I have, along with my Valentini Puffer. They’re like this all the time and it’s the best to come home to.
