The “Horned Blenny” are a comical-looking fish which are found in loose groups in shallow protected inner reefs and harbours around jetty pylons, sponges and mussel beds.


They feed on algae from dead coral bases. They grow to 12cm and can swim to a depth of 10m. Horned Blennies are usually territorial and have their own areas of rock pools which they skip and jump over, scraping algae from the surface of dead corals. Some male Blennies have small harems of arguing females. Males and females often have different colouring and features.
