Description
The Goldline Blenny is a small, peaceful saltwater fish prized for its algae-grazing abilities in reef aquariums. It typically exhibits a brownish body with darker mottling and can sometimes display a subtle golden line. This blenny is an excellent choice for a mature tank with ample live rock for grazing and hiding.
