Bicolor Blenny Troubles???

[ScruffyRubicon]

My bicolor blenny has suddenly taken to picking at my montis and acros. Is this normal for them and if so how do I stop it?

I had a bicolor that went through a whole rock of blue zoos then decided to pull the heads off two of my feather dusters and then went after my clam! He was fine for a yr then decided to become a bully. I used the bottle trap to get him out of my tank then I gave him to a friend that has him in a fish only tank.

my bi color is kinda a jerk too, cool fish, but just kinda beligerent.

My bi-color picked at my corals as well... but now that I have a ball of chaeto in the main tank, that's the only thing he picks on now.

odd, i have never had a problem with bi-colour blennies. i have had close to 10 over the years. they will pick at algae near or on dead parts of a coral.

i have heard a lot of people talking about this lately though. not sure what it means.

Maybe the new generation are just badasses.

This one was actually cleaning the acro tissue all the way down to the skeleton.

I was making an attempt at catching him last night and he managed to swim into my LTA. RIP! The two true percs quickly helped the LTA push him into the mouth. I knew it was going to happen sooner or later. The blenny liked to hide in the old barnacle that is under the LTA. He would swim through the tentacles to get there. He just wasn't fast enough this time.
