The african golden midas blenny is #1 on my most wanted fish list.  They are rare and very hard to come by here in south florida.  I have been on the waiting list at 3 local fish stores for the last 6 months and still no midas for me.  The african golden midas is an awesome yellow/orange color.  They are great reef fish and do well with most other fish.  Don’t put them in the same aquarium as another blenny though unless you have a large tank say more than 100 gallons.  They love to hide out in crevices and caves your live rock and are fairly easy to care for.  If you have one please post comments about them.  I would love to hear some stories.  I think they are great fish and the best of the blenny bunch.

Buy at saltwaterfish.com if they have them in stock.  I have never seen them in stock though.
