Description

Gobies are an excellent addition to reef aquariums as they have a small adult size and a lot of personality. Hector's Gobies will spend their time grazing on hair algae and sifting through the sand bed. Before adding them into the aquarium, make sure that all rocks are securely rested on the bottom of the tank and not just on the sand, as these fish will undermine and destabilize the rockwork otherwise. Its care is minimal; the most important aspect of their care is to make sure they are eating. Be sure to supplement their diet with meaty frozen foods (thawed) and marine sinking pellets. This little guy has an adult size of about 3" and make a great addition to smaller aquariums. They have horizontal stripes of yellow against their reddish-brown body. Hector's Gobies are found in the Indo-West Pacific inhabiting sheltered bays and reefs up to 30 meters deep.
