Update: I lost one. It was a bit dazed and confused from day one and almost got eaten by some Sunny D polyps. I think it was doomed. The remaining one definitely eats live baby Brine Shrimp. I am seeing a feeding response as long as it doesn't see me! Haha. I added a couple Catalina Gobies so hopefully they will help teach the Panda Goby to eat frozen mash.[/QUO
What temp are you keeping your tank.
A little heads up, catalina gobies don't survive long in water warmer than 70 degrees. They are best kept in tanks between 60 and 70 degrees. Your panda goby in a tropical species and I believe you may have a problem.
Thanks for the heads up. I am aware of the fishes' normal ranges. These Catalina Gobies are captive bred in water ranging from 72-75F. The temperature im keeping, 74F, is within normal range for both fishes. It is on the high side of normal for Catalina Gobies and the low side of normal for Panda Gobies.
The average life span of Catalina gobies is only 2-3 years. I do know if several living in normal reef temperatures of 78-80F that are over 2 years old. These are captive bred as well. I speculate that captive bred specimens may be hardier in warmer temperatures.
