Citron gobies

["Umm, fish?"]

The gobies have moved their operation to the back side of an aquarium magnet. Seems like the perfect opportunity to try out some artificial incubation. Excellent!!

what do you feed them?

["Umm, fish?"]

Pretty much anything small and meaty and they are happy.

and for the babies do you think thay can make it with rotifers? or they need A. Tonsa

These fish have been raised on rots many times.

thank you i just get 3 of them and will give them a breeding try, do they need a coral branch? i think thay can use a ceramic pot? mines are almost 1 inch long

["Umm, fish?"]

Sorry. A lot of pet emergencies lately so I haven't been able to post much. They do not need a coral (though they look really cool with one). Good luck!

Speaking of, my gobies decided to put down some more eggs today:

well now i have 2 pairs they are big and nice but i havent seen any breedin activity do you think thay can lay eggs in a pvc tube?

["Umm, fish?"]

It took mine a really long time to get started spawning, probably close to a year. I think they spent a lot of time sorting out gender roles.

I think they may certainly spawn on a PVC tube, but I would guess that they would spawn on the outside rather than the inside.

Well,my current pair (F1 female) of G.okinawae like to hang on their coral branch but spawn in a PVC pipe.On the inside top,like damsels.
