Marine Tank -- Fish ( Bicolor Blenny--Ecsenius bicolor )

Newest addition to the marine tank-- a Bicolour Blenny !! Chanced upon it when popping by the LFS... been looking for it for quite some time... $6 for an active and healthy specimen, just had to grab it... settled well into the tank on the first day and getting out to feed plus chasing the jewel damsel should be a good sign its doing well... Supposedly easy to feed and helps control/ consume some algae...

Marine Tank -- Fish ( Pink Skunk Clown-- Amphipirion Perideraion)

No marine tank is complete without a clownfish or two ? Or at least I feel so...My preference for clownfish seems to differ from the typical bright orange/ black patterned " Nemo"-- the pink skunk clownfish with its subtle colours attracts me more and IMO seems to contrast much better with the brighter corals I seek to own...

It is also not without its challenges-- it reportedly is less hardy/durable than other clownfish species and I lost the initial 3, ending up with these 2 stable specimens in my tank. They took to the bubble-tip anemone very readily, sadly which I failed to keep long-term... They didn't seem to mind taking the hammer coral as a substitute lately though....
