Gobies


Gobies are very cool fish. They are dazzling in color. Some have stripes some have spots. There are good things and bad things about gobies. Lets start with the good news. They eat a lot of things that you may not want in your tank like algae and invertebrates that may do harm to your tank. Also, they are not aggressive at all they get along well with other fish in your tank. They do not need a lot of space to live in they are often kept in small tanks. Now we are onto the bad news. If you want to get a goby there favorite meal is copepods which take a while to develop in your tank. It usually takes sadly 4 to 6 months. Also they spend about 60% of their time behind rocks. Which means you don't see their beautiful designs a lot.
