The Fingered Dragonet is related to the Scooter Blenny, but has a much larger, dramatic dorsal fin. They are mottled in browns and white, with a very large dorsal fin, brilliantly marked with browns, tan and blue. The head and gill area of these fish are accented with bright blue spots adding even more appeal. This is a relatively rare find in the industry and are a great addition to the reef aquarium. 

A 70-gallon or larger reef aquarium that has live sand substrate, docile inhabitants, and lots of live rock makes the ideal aquarium. They require live foods that are found within the live rock, and a refugium attached to the aquarium helps provide the necessary nutrition. More than one of its species may be kept; if so, it is best to introduce them all to the aquarium at the same time. 

The Fingered Dragonet may be a difficult fish to keep due to its feeding habits. They need large amounts of live rock in which they find their micro-crustacean food. Finely cut meaty foods and vitamin-enriched brine and mysis shrimp may be acceptable substitutes.
