There once was a Canary Blenny,
Whose venom made others quite penny,
A spunky blue fellow,
With venom so yellow,
He's immune, oh what a great any!
This little fish packs a punch,
With venomous spikes on his hunch,
A bite not so great,
For those who can't wait,
To handle his fury, a true hunch!
But fear not, this fish is just fine,
For his spines are used to align,
And pick up debris,
And make a new nestie,
A cool trick that's truly divine!
So next time you see this blue elf,
Don't fear, for he won't cause harm to self,
Just admire and watch,
As he picks up and botches,
A cool fish to admire from a closet shelf!
Keeping the Canary Blenny
The Canary Blenny, scientifically known as Meiacanthus oualanensis, is a popular species that many aquarists love to keep in their tanks. Here are some things to consider when keeping this fish:
- Tank size: A tank size of at least 30 gallons is recommended for this species.
- Diet: The Canary Blenny is a carnivore and should be fed a diet of frozen or live brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, and other meaty foods.
- Compatibility: The Canary Blenny can be kept with other non-aggressive species, but may become territorial towards other blennies or similar-looking fish.
- Personality: One of the coolest things about the Canary Blenny is its tendency to perch on rocks, corals, or other structures, giving it a unique and interesting appearance. They are also known for their jumping abilities, so a secure lid is a must!
