Smallest Fish?

[osras1]

What is the smallest fish that you can put in your aquarium? (juveniles dont count!)

 

[kateater]

Catalina Gobies are my favorite small fish but they like cooler temps.

Red spotted gobies and clown gobies are pretty small.

 

[Squishie89]

Clown gobies.

 

[Genesis Corals]

Neon goby is the smallest in my tank.

 

[osras1]

i was going to say clown gobies

Eviota and Trimma gobies probably. Some are around 1/2 the size of clown/neon gobies.

I was also thinking Clown gobies but I also sometimes keep brackish bumblebee gobies in my reef. Bluestriped pipefish would be the skinniest I think

trimma gobies!!!

I keep a pair in this tank: https://www.reef2reef.com/forums/nano-reefs/101501-project-frankenstein-5.html

This guy was in our 90. But haven't seen him for a few weeks. Which is normal at times lol

Was sold to us as a Red Pygmy goby, had scientific name but can't remember it.

looks like a type of eviota to me!

He was a cool little guy, not sure where he went though. Being in a 90 gal could easily hide. Lol

But last time we saw him in his normal spot for the last few months. He had a white cotton ball little spot on him. I would try and catch him and you would think be fairly easy but he always made it hard. And not wanting to stress him more I just left him. And had it for probably 2 months so not sure if maybe died. Or if our butt head hogfish finally found him, or if may be just found a really good hiding spot!

sounds like he might of had lymphocitis. If so they most usually recover, hopefully it pops back up one day!

I have a bunch of these "Dot" fish. Here is a male, fully grown -------> , <---------:der:I recently took a picture of a school of them in the Caymans and you can see them here getting ready to pounce on that unsuspecting nurse shark, who seems to be trembling in fear.

A panda goby of course!
