If you go with two percs, get a large one and a small one, or just get one, as clowns can be aggressive towards one another. If you get a large one and a small one, they may pair off.

We had a midas blenny. They are beautiful little fish with personality. I wouldn't hesitate getting another. The one we had did jump, but it was the first time I had every head of one jumping. Turns out that the lawnmover blenny we got to replace him also jumped. Something fishy was going on.

We eventually discovered that our lone perc was involved in a lot of nighttime violence, which is most likely why they jumped. (There were other things, too, but either way, I don't think the blennies just decided to go carpet surfing for the heck of it.)

I doubt that you would also get a perc from he!! that would make everyone else run for their lives - her mate jumped too. (She's in a nano - and anger therapy - now). A little windowscreening stapled on the back of the canopy also helps prevent jumping.

I don't know much about Grammas, but the midas blenny is a cool fish.
