So yesterday after 3 years I lost my lm blenny. The only fish in my 40 breeder is a black capped basslet which was the last fish added. Problem is he's a jerk, never bothered the blenny but I did add a pink streaked wrasse a few months ago which he quickly harassed to the point where I had to remove him a day after before he died. There's a lot of coral in my tank but I would love to add a fish that could handle himself. Is there any fish that would work? Also can I add a larger fish the would intimidate the basslet? Thanks all.

Its been my experience that fish with aggressive nature our best removed from small tanks, they really just stop you from adding others because they get to stressed. Im not quite sure what fish you could add that would stand his ground? But take into account adding another fish, you might end up with two aggressive guys instead of one. Good Luck sorry for the blenny.
