Irene Russell –
This goby has been a great addition to my 40-gallon reef tank. It’s active but not aggressive and stays in the sandy areas without disturbing corals. Easy to care for once the tank is stable. Perfect for intermediate aquarists.
Kevin Churchill –
I bought this for my beginner reef setup. It’s peaceful and stays in the sand bed. The size is within the XL range as listed. Needs a stable environment but adapts well after a few weeks.
Rachel Graham –
The goby is very active and curious. It doesn’t eat much and doesn’t stress other fish. I’ve kept it for over six months and it’s still healthy and vibrant.
