I just found three of these little gobies in a messy looking tidepool, I really like how they are more free swimming than some gobies (that always sit on the bottom). I think they are very attractive. Using Google image search I managed to ID them myself as

Perfectly legal within the regulations

“All regulated fish must comply with size and possession limits regardless of whether they are kept for consumption or to keep in an aquarium,” she said.

“Some fish, such as declared noxious fish and no-take species, cannot be taken and kept in aquariums.

“There are restrictions on the types of recreational fishing gear that can be used when collecting fish for aquariums.

“It’s also important to remember that you cannot collect aquarium fish to sell unless you have the appropriate licence.

“Collecting aquarium fish to sell without the appropriate licence could land you an $1100 on-the-spot fine or a maximum penalty of $110,000.”

What kind of tank are they in?
Salt/Brackish or fresh?

I actually use water collected from the same place where they live - not brackish, but clean estuary. It's a small tank with mostly soft coral, hermits, snails etc etc. They are tiny yet, although they grow to 4cm apparently.
