I don't think gobies like sand. They like the bigger pieces of sand/rock. I'm just saying I had a watchman goby and he never picked up sand through his body or w.e they do.Hello,
Would you guys say my goby is healthy? I’ve never seen him look unhealthy, but i’ve seen lots of stuff about people not being able to keep them. Kinda got me worried. Just need some professional opinion, don’t want to be starving him. Looks like a chunky boy to me.
I don't think gobies like sand. They like the bigger pieces of sand/rock. I'm just saying I had a watchman goby and he never picked up sand through his body or w.e they do but if yours is eating through the sand. I'd say he's good.
I've got some on order, I've found buying pods from ebay to be 10x cheaper than an actual store. I think 500ml from reef phyto is £40.00, I've got 400ml on order from ebay for £10.00 the seller has 5star reviews as well. Lots of them!If you want to speed things up dose pods for a few weeks after lights off.
Yeah from lights on to lights off, he's just sifting mouth fulls of sand, beside the odd 5 minute break (probably from over indulgence) he seems happyI don't think gobies like sand.

Yeah they get along fine. In fairness the Dragonet ignores the other fish and they ignore him! Stunning fish and definitely my favourite in the tank.Same here thinking about it, it was almost the 12 month mark before I noticed critters, I hadn't dosed anything into my old tank and you have a mandarin as well? How do they get along? I really want a dragonette. Hence the urge to get this tank established.
What size tank do you have? and I would love a dragonet. Does yours eat prepared foods?Yeah they get along fine. In fairness the Dragonet ignores the other fish and they ignore him! Stunning fish and definitely my favourite in the tank.
He just glides around picking at the rocks for copepods etc and he's really relaxing to watch- covers the entire tank and is happy to come to the front quite often so he isn't shy or skittish.
Tempted to have a pair but I think I'm at capacity with my other fish in the tank.

Nope - you might be hard pressed to find one that eats prepared or frozen foods. I've seen videos online of people training mandarins to eat frozen or prepared foods but I just dump 2 bags of copepods per week into my tank and hes happy and healthy. Costs me £4 per week to feed him which I'm happy with tbh.What size tank do you have? and I would love a dragonet. Does yours eat prepared foods?
Do you dose them directly into the tank or into your sump / all in one chamber?Nope - you might be hard pressed to find one that eats prepared or frozen foods.

Into the tank directly after lights out to make it easier for the copepods to make their into the tank and liverock before getting eaten by the other inhabitants.Do you dose them directly into the tank or into your sump / all in one chamber?
