One of my all-time favorite fish..sandsifting twin spot goby. Known to have a bad track record in captivity. But after seeing this little guy in an lfs tank for about a month, i pulled the trigger. And last night I saw him eat mysis that was on the sand so things are looking up. :bigsmile:

Great photo!
 
Awesome photo! Good luck with him!!
 
thanks guys..yeah, i'm diggin' (no pun intended..lol) this little guy. so far he sifts but doesn't dump. He has a small mouth so he doesnt make a mess and doesnt stir up tons of crap either.

These fish, for some reason, tend to do better in small nano tanks as opposed to larger tanks. I had one in a red sea max 34 a few years back and did great..then transferred it to a large well established 225g and disappeared within a week.

Another point to make is that they are known jumpers so a tight lid is a must. Luckily my tank came with a glass top but thinking of changing that to a custom screen mesh top in the near future.
