Parablennius is a genus of blennies, commonly known as Combtooth Blennies, found in the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. These small, active fish are known for their distinctive comb-like teeth and curious behavior. They often inhabit rocky crevices and are adept at clinging to surfaces in turbulent waters. In the aquarium, they require plenty of hiding places and a mature tank with algae growth to graze on. They are generally peaceful but can be territorial with their own kind.
