Description
The Yellow-eyed comb-tooth, also known as the Segmented Blenny, is a small, peaceful saltwater fish recognized by its green head, striking yellow eyes, and a distinctive yellow stripe. It primarily grazes on algae and small invertebrates found on live rock. This blenny is a great addition to a reef or fish-only aquarium.
