Added this goby to my 40-gallon reef tank last month. It’s active but calm, doesn’t bother other fish or corals. Adapts well to the environment and stays in the sand areas. Good choice for intermediate reef keepers.
Hannah Morgan –
The goby looks healthy and is very peaceful. It’s not aggressive and doesn’t chase other fish. I appreciate that it’s reef-safe. Needs a stable environment, but overall a solid addition to the tank.
Heather Henderson –
Felt like a natural fit in my tank. It’s curious and explores the sand bed without causing disturbances. Easy to care for and has been thriving for over two months.
