So right now I'm deciding between, if I go the captive bred route, between a group of Biota Eviota Hairfin Gobies or Evitoa Lachdebereis. I've seen a lot of pics of the Hairfins to get a good idea of what they look like but not the E. Lachs. Is anyone keeping the Biota Lachs that can provide some pics of them?
 

i cant think

These aren’t my photos (A quick google search shows you a variety of photos, some taken under normal light some under more professional lighting). However these are both photos of males. Females look the same however they do not have the elongated dorsal fin as seen in the two males below.

Another thing to take into consideration when picking fish is what has a more interesting behaviour? These guys have an interesting symbiotic relationship with heliofungia corals. So if you ever get one or two heliofungias then consider these as a better option.
