Unofficial Clown Goby Thread

Quick question. Why aren't threads official any more? They have every right to be official...just thinking out loud.

 

I was going to get a clown goby, but a mantis shrimp just seemed more appealing.

Here's Squirt in his favorite acro. I've had this guy for about a year now and he's such a fat happy little guy. I did have two in my 90g but one ended up in my overflow where there were hermits and I suspect it became a meal. Also the one that ended up in the overflow had the worst habit of eating my elegance. Yes I said elegance an LPS not an SPS :huh: . I sat and watched the little guy stuff himself full of the polyps(even though he was well fed on prepared foods). After he dissappeared my elegance started to recover but it was almost a goner.

I also used to have a little Panda Goby. Super cute but oh so cryptic. I had it in a 10g as an only fish and I very rarely ever saw it. I believe it starved and perished :tears: They'd be better suited for a tiny pico tank.

I used to have one. He was a cool guy but wouldn't eat anything(mysis,live brine,pellets,flakes). He starved to death in about 2 weeks. :(

 

Here he is though.

My clown is has been very picky lately...

 

I've tired, Formula One flake, duraflake, blood worms, 'reef plankton', sinking pellets, betta food and every combanation of those dipped in garlic. Hell I even bought live adult brine shrimp. He just bites and kills them and then lets them float away. Seems like the only thing he will eat is live baby brine (no nutritional value) and frozen brine (questionable nutritional value) Any ideas?

Thought I would add a new shot of my YCG. Speaking of food, this guy wont stop begging for food. He comes up to the glass any time I walk by and will eat anything thrown in from pellets, to garlic flake, to brine.

keep your tank stocked with pods and they love cyclopeez . so far anything else i put in there he doesnt look twice at it. the pods give em something to find and eat daily, then i do the freeze dried cyclopleez on sundays.

 

always perch'd on my montipora digitata. waiting and watching for a pod to move along the glass
