Continuing with the fishy theme here my Mollie Miller, another type of algae blenny

Both Pics taken with Nikon D200, Nikkor 105mm 2.8 Macro lens, this one also required a 27mm extension tube

I have seen Mollies before but none like this one, of course there are probably many different types, I am not to familar with fish, unless they are trout. Nice "fishy" portrait though

I spelt it wrong

it should actually be spelt Molly Miller (Scartella cristata) he's a pretty common fish found in the Atlantic and Pacific, he was about 10mm from top to bottom so not a big fish, definately smaller than a trout!

Blennies are very comical fish. I used to spend hours watching them when I had my reef tank. Are these fish pictures from your aquarium??
