Added the Banded Prawn Goby to my 10-gallon reef tank and it has been thriving. The orange bands stand out well against the coral. Easy to care for and doesn’t cause any issues with other fish.

A nice addition to my aquarium. It’s active and colorful, and seems to get along with the other fish. The banding is very noticeable and adds visual interest.

Perfect for a small reef tank. It’s peaceful, doesn’t eat coral, and looks great. I’ve had it for three months and it’s still healthy and active.
