    It only let me post one picture, with their dark pectoral fins they look like little flies when they swim.

    "The Molly Miller blenny might best be described as a "utility fish." 
This not-so-fussy eater has earned a reputation as an effective aquarium
 scavenger; it is known to feed on nuisance algae and detritus, and is 
widely reputed to feed on cyanobacteria and  Aiptasia spp. sea 
anemones. If even half of these reports hold up to truth, the Molly 
Miller blenny could truly be the preeminent clean-up critter of the 
marine aquarium fish trade." Kenneth Wingerter

I have tried in the past and they have all died. They are an extremely active larvae and need lots of food. I think I starved them in the past.
