Description

Please note that the product information displayed is provided by manufacturers, suppliers and other third parties and is not independently verified by Petco.

Gobies are an excellent addition to reef aquariums as they are very timid, disease resistant and hardy. When planning a display with this goby, be sure to use a few inches of mixed grain sand, as this will give them enough depth to burrow, and a more secure final structure. The Diamond Watchman Goby scavenges and sift through the sand for food, which helps keep your sand looking clean. Because they are generally busy working on the sand bed, target feeding is recommended to keep them from missing meals. They can become territorial against other Diamonds, gobies and bottom dwellers so they should be the only goby unless they are a mated pair. This goby has an adult size of 6" and are a great addition to smaller aquariums. They have a white body and broad red bands that are littered with blue spots.

- Add to an aquarium with ample rockwork for grazing/hiding and a deep sand bed
- For continued health, provide a varied diet of marine meaty foods and should be fed twice daily
- Reef safe
- Should be the only goby in the aquarium unless they are a mated pair
- Needs peaceful tankmates
- Minimum tank size: 30 gallons
- Approximate selling size: 2.25-3.5"

ACCLIMATION: Avoid exposing new aquatic life to bright lights after opening the box. Turn off aquarium lights prior to floating aquatic life. Allow the sealed bag with your new fish to float in your aquarium for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than one hour) to ensure the water in the bag matches the temperature in your aquarium. A bacteria booster addition can assist with the addition of new aquatic life. Petco offers free water testing in store to determine if your water is safe for the addition of new aquatic life. DIET: A well-balanced diet consists of a variety of flakes, pellets, freeze-dried and frozen foods, depending on the species. FEEDING: Feed sparingly and no more than fish can eat in 1-2 minutes. Overfeeding can quickly foul the water, especially in smaller aquariums.
