Aquarium Information

• Care level: intermediate
• Temperament: semi-aggressive
• Diet: carnivore

• Compatibility: Can be kept with other robust, similarly sized fish. Avoid very small or docile species as they may be preyed upon or harassed. Best kept in species-specific tanks or with other gobies.
• Special requirements: Requires a well-filtered tank with plenty of hiding spots (rocks, driftwood, PVC pipes) and a substrate of sand or fine gravel. They are bottom-dwellers and appreciate a varied diet of live or frozen foods. Good water quality is essential.
