Horned Blenny
Description
Description
The Horned Blenny is a small, character-rich saltwater fish best known for the distinctive fleshy “horns” or tentacles above its eyes. While not brightly colored, the Horned Blenny is highly engaging, offering constant personality and natural behavior that appeals to aquarists who appreciate subtle, interactive reef fish. Horned Blennies typically reach an adult size of 3–4 inches. Their coloration ranges from tan and brown to gray or olive, often mottled or banded to blend seamlessly with rockwork. The signature horn-like cirri above the eyes give the fish a curious, expressive look and may be more pronounced in males. Their elongated body and large eyes contribute to their alert, watchful appearance.
