Question: are blennies and gobies the same?
Answer: Most are ferocious hunters but a few species are omnivores and eat algae. Dragonets are often called “Blennies” or “Gobies”; however, this is inaccurate since they are in a family of their own. These fishes have large lips, large eyes, and diminutive gill openings protected by a spiny “cheekbone” protrusion.
