Info

Hypleurochilus bermudensis Beebe & Tee-Van, 1933

Hypleurochilus is a genus of combtooth blennies found throughout the Atlantic Ocean. Hypleurochilus bermudensis inhabit rocky bottom and coral rubble.

Jumping guard
A jumping guard prevents (nocturnal) fish from jumping out.
Wrasses, blennies, hawkfishs and gobies jump out of an unprotected tank in fright if their night rest is disturbed, unfortunately these jumpers are found dried up in the morning on carpets, glass edges or later behind the tank.

A small night light also helps, as it provides the fish with a means of orientation in the dark!
