I am not even sure I can describe to you how small they really are.... but let's try.
Look at the pinky finger on one of your hands. Now imagine something that is about 1/3 as wide as the nail on that hand.... that would be about the width of this guy.
We usually find them in a small hole that looks as if it was drilled into the coral or even the cement blocks that are often used for moorings around the docks of a resort. These holes are actually abandoned worm hole.s
The Blenny likes to perch at the mouth of the whole with their head extended. They will occasionally dart out to grab bits of food suspended in the water column.
I have never seen one of these darts, so I don't know how long they are.... but I bet it is not very.
