goby

Our diamond goby has been acting weird the past couple of days. We have had him for about 8 months and he has grown a ton but seems to be short of breath and less active in the last couple of days. Last night he seemed 'frozen' at a part of the tank he is not usually in, mouth wide open, not...

My corals have been looking rather sad for the past 1-2 weeks. Tank: 6-7 months old, 35 gals May 1: Bacterial Bloom. Cleared up and dropped nitrates to 1. They are typically around 10-12 since I mainly have LPS corals. May 12: 5 gal water change and cleaned all the algae off the back wall for...

Is there anything but a wrasse I can ge to eat amphipods. I like the look of gobies but need one they can take down some serious pods. I’m running a biocube 32 so it needs to be smallish.

I just found my diamond goby sideways and thought it was dead. Come to find it breathing when I hold it upright. I have it in a small container to isolate and I put a small amount of food in the water. I recently put new fish and coral into HIS home. Could this be stress??? Anyway to fix? Help!!!

Hi all, I’ve had a wheeler goby in my 13.5 gallon tank for a couple of weeks now and yesterday I picked up a candy pistol shrimp from my lfs and added him to the tank. When I first added him (after acclimating) he hid in a small hole in a rock and it took him around 24 hours to come out. My goby...

So I have a 20 gallon long with 2 clown fish, wheelers goby and a tiger banded pistol shrimp. My cuc is a 3 snails and that was it. The tank is newer so I haven’t stocked more until today. I haven’t seen my pistol shrimp for days and figured he was molting. Then I saw my goby (they weren’t...

I'm looking for a mandarin goby that is trained on eating things other than copepods. Ideally one that is eating frozen foods like mysis, pellets, and/or flakes. Can be a blue or green mandarin, but blue is preferred. Price is negotiable within reason. Must be able to be shipped to Fairfax...

Hi reefers, I'm thinking about Changing my sand-bottomed tank to a bare bottom. However, I have a watchman goby/pistol shrimp pair that I love dearly. I was thinking about making a sort of sandbox for them to dig tunnels in. I have several questions about this: 1. Is this a bad idea for any...

Hi hi! Just got my 30 gal. cube up and running, it's been cycling for about 8 weeks. All of my levels are coming out at zero. Snails & hermits are doing well. I introduced a two-spot goby (Mr. Harold), and he's king of the castle and seems super happy. Last night I "accidentally" brought home 2...

I keep watching videos on gobies and pistol shrimp where they mention that there are many species of gobies and shrimp that pair but only some pair with pistol shrimp, yet I can't seem to find any information on goby and shrimp symbiosis without it being a pistol shrimp. Does anyone know of any...

Hey Just here to share my experience keeping these two species of gobies. I currently have 2 Tomiyamichthys oni (T. oni) and 3 Priolepis cincta (P. cincta) in a 10 gal quarantine and they have been with me for 2 weeks now. The T. oni are about 1.75 inch in lenght with a thickness that is close...

I have a pair of Mocha Gladiator Clowns and a Coral Beauty Angel. They eat the frozen mysis shrimp, but don’t seem too happy with it. I also have marine pellets that the clowns like but the angel doesn’t seem to like. My biggest concern is the angel because it doesn’t seem to eat much. What’s...

My goby has been sick for 3 days, decided to put him in a small bucket with water from the tank, I dosed a small amount of beneficial bacteria and metroplex to the bucket for medication. Am i doing more harm than good? Or I should keep him there until he gets better or dies hopefully not. I am...

Hey guys need help, my new watchman goby started to be lethargic 2 days ago and now he spins like a corkscrew when he swims, I put him in the first chamber of my aio so the other fish won't bother him. Should I euthanize him or just keep trying to feed him. He's breathing slowed a little bit...

Hi all, I was considering a mated goby pair (from LA in this instance)... What has your experience been with mated goby pairs? Are they worth it? Pros and cons? Thoughts? Etc? Thanks for your input!

Hello fellow saltines, I've been trying to find out whether a goby/pistol pair that I currently have in my tank will be compatible with a pom pom crab? I know they are compatible in general I just wasn't sure if a 5g might be too small to house them together. What I'm concerned about is the pom...
