Tank & care

Bicolour blenny doesn't need a group and can be kept singly; choose tankmates to suit its temperament.

Give it at least 75 cm of swimming length and hold the water around 24–27 °C. Match any new species to these ranges before adding them.

Plan a tank with this fish

Use the stocking calculator to see how many Bicolour blenny your tank can hold and whether your planned tankmates are compatible — it's anchored to your net water volume and footprint.

Figures are conservative hobby-consensus estimates for planning. Individual fish vary — always research a species and watch how yours behave.
