🌊 The Sea cleared up this week, with the visibility improving so I could finally see beyond my own nose!
Particularly pleased to come across my Shanny pals, hanging out in their usual haunts!
Glad they have weathered the big stormy swells!

Close up of a face of a blenny in a coral-filled tidepool. The face is adorable and looks totally alien with two cute horns/antennae on top. She is mostly brown with some green dots.
The cutest in all the sea

This image shows a close-up of a small, colorful blenny peeking out from a crevice, likely in coral or rock. The blenny has a striking appearance: its face and head are covered in tiny, iridescent spots of red, green, and turquoise, creating a dazzling pattern. Its large, round eyes stand out, each with a reddish hue, giving it an alert and curious expression. Two thin, horn-like appendages rise above its eyes. Its mouth is slightly open, showing tiny, comb-like teeth. The fish looks almost like it’s smiling. The background is dark, making the fish’s vivid colors glow even more. This is a blenny, more specifically a Redspotted Blenny (Blenniella chrysospilos). Blennies are small, often brightly patterned fish that live in rocky crevices or coral holes, just like in the photo. The red and green iridescent spots, the horn-like cirri (little fleshy appendages) above the eyes, and the toothy grin are classic features of this species. They’re usually found in shallow tropical waters of the Indo-Pacific, and they spend a lot of time poking their heads out of hiding places, watching for food or predators.

Sharing this little Shanny spotted in a rock pool today.
His cute little eyes watching.

Imagine diving under a big rock to find an illegal den of hungry sea monsters just waiting for something to eat? Happened to me the other day. Honest.

A close-up of several colorful Christmas tree worms, showing their symmetrical spiral feeding crowns in orange, purple, and blue hues, radiating like fireworks across the reef.
A small spinyhead blenny with bright green eyes peeks out of its burrow. Behind it, a large pink-and-orange Christmas tree worm is softly blurred, creating a dramatic background.
Christmas tree worms extend their spiraled feeding crowns, while a spinyhead #blenny peeks from its burrow in front of one—two tiny reef icons sharing the same real estate in #PuertoRico. Life on the reef is small, colorful, and endlessly intertwined. #marinelife

Tidepool close up of small blenny - a fish-lizard like denizen. Green-brown and beige with golden eyes.
Adorable #blenny giving me the major side-eye. I took it in stride. 🦑

A close up portrait of a blenny fish whose face is covered in hundreds of tiny spots of colour including blacks, reds, blues and green.
So another #Fishmas post - I thought this Blenny almost resembled a Xmas bauble. It’s from the United Arab Emirates - most divers swim past these small fish living in tiny holes. Macro shows how beautiful they are up close.

Did you forget about #blenny teeth??? Tiny fish, giant fangs, and a single row of teeth on each jaw. Unrivaled.

As well as Nudibranch I also have a soft spot for Blennies. This is Alloblennius pictus from Saudi Arabia - the hole it is occupying is about 7mm wide.

Many blenny species are found in or resting on the surface of corals. Arrow blennies sometimes go on the float with their tail curled to catch the currents to move around.

If you look closely at the reef, there is always something to see. These little blennies perch on coral heads and often dart for cover if you approach too quickly.

Caneva's Blennies (Microlipophrys canevae) are also common in the Gulf of Castellammare but I saw no males in breeding condition (unlike in May on the Lazio coast) x.com/numenini/status/11247047... #blenny #blennies #mediterraneanfish...
One of my 3 new species in NW Sicily was this fabulous Molly Miller (Scartella cristata) at Baia di San Cataldo (top) with its "hairy" neck.
Also saw several red Zvonimir’s Blennies (Parablennius zvonimiri).

My 5th Goby sp. at Cabo de Palos was Painted Goby (Pomatoschistus pictus) at Levante.
Rusty Blennies (Parablennius sanguinolentus) are common, as are Sphinx (Aidablennius sphynx) & super cute Diabolo (P. incognitus) blennies (lower right). #blenny #blennies #Mediterranean

My new favourite Mediterranean fish - Caneva's Blenny (Microlipophrys canevae). What style! Needless to say this is the territorial male, hoping to mate...
