I got these fish from school when my teacher got fired nobody was taking care of them so i took them home and started a salt water aquarium. Now i am curious as to what type of fish these are.

WOW, they certainly were not being taken care of. They look emaciated. Feed them good and often.

The blenny is Astrosolarias fuscus, commonly refered to as the High Fin Blenny. If you are interested in seeing a healthy one here's a link to mine...... http://www.theculturedreef.com/75pic-4.htm

Hmmmm. May have made a mistake in identifying your blenny. Upon closer scrutiny of your somewhat out of focus blenny pic, I see it has "eyebrows". That would put it into the catagory on "lawnmower" blennies. Sorry about that.

That is what I was thinking too. I wondered if it was an out of focus lawnmower blenny or other wise know as a rock work blenny by some.
