Fish
Dragonets are very popular inhabitants of the domestic marine aquarium. The known mandarin fish of the class Synchiropus outshine this interesting species. Dragonets exist almost exclusively in the Indo-Pacific and mostly rests on its ventral fins on the sandy soil. Dragonets are very popular due to their interesting behaviour, their usually small final size and the wonderful colour (for example LSD-dragonet). They are usually kept individually or in pairs since e.g. the mandarin fish fights with the male till death.
Coral hawkfish usually sits on corals and moves by hopping from one coral to other. They are mostly similar in appearance with the exception of long snouted coral hawkfish. Also the coral hawkfishes should be kept individually or in pairs – several males fight with each other! Especially popular is the blazing hawkfish (Neocirrhites armatus) – It is suspected that it attacks smaller shrimps. The tanks should also be provided with a spring protection. Blenny should be kept separated at all times unless they are offered in fixed pairs. Attacks on SPS polyps are known in Ecsenius species. Since this fish is not a great swimmer, they are suitable for good structured nano-aquarium. Please inform about the required tank sizes of individual type. Generally pay attention on good structured tanks with sufficient hiding places and live rock.

"Solitary and no extensive swimmers!"
Blennies should be kept separately in any case, unless they are already offered as a solid couple. Ecsenius is known for attacking SPS polyps.
