Description
The Queensland Combtooth Blenny (*Salarias ramosus*) is a peaceful, algae-eating marine fish known for its distinctive comb-like teeth and often mottled or spotted coloration. It is an excellent addition to a reef or fish-only saltwater aquarium, helping to control nuisance algae. They are bottom-dwellers that spend their time grazing on live rock.
