Keeping Round Goby in an aquarium requires the right conditions.

Aquarium Information

• Care level: intermediate
• Temperament: aggressive
• Diet: carnivore
• Minimum tank size: 30 gallons
• Compatibility: Not recommended for community tanks with smaller or docile fish due to their aggressive and predatory nature. Can be kept with larger, robust fish that can defend themselves.
• Special requirements: Requires a tank with plenty of hiding spots (rocks, caves) and a sandy or fine gravel substrate. Excellent filtration is necessary due to their messy eating habits. They are escape artists, so a secure lid is essential.
