The bracketed blenny is a small fish found in coral reefs of the western Atlantic Ocean. It's identified by a distinctive dark bar, or 'bracket,' behind its eye. Think of it as a fish wearing eyeliner! They are small, colorful fish often seen darting among corals. Bracketed blennies are active during the day, feeding on algae and small invertebrates. They are popular aquarium fish due to their small size and vibrant colors. Their presence adds biodiversity to reef ecosystems.
