jedimasterben Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 A bit far for me or I'd take the rest of them. Still far cheaper than buying them from most places, even the LFS around here charge almost $20 apiece for them. Link to comment

Tamberav Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I love these damn gobies! I only ever had a single. Do they do well in groups? I know live aquaria says they do, but sometimes their information is wrong. Link to comment
Proudgeek Posted January 20, 2016 Author Share Posted January 20, 2016 I love these damn gobies! I only ever had a single. Do they do well in groups? I know live aquaria says they do, but sometimes their information is wrong. They are great for sure. I've also had single only but all indications lead to at least good mated pairs. That is why I am going with 2. If you have a large tank, more may not be an issue. So the 5 fish are ordered and will get here Tuesday. The other 3 fish are already spoken for. Will post again if anything changes. Harry is 1st on the stand-by list. Link to comment
Tamberav Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I ordered a group of 5 and some nerite snails cuz #### it. I'm thinking either a pair in a 5g and sell the other 3 or put all 5 in my 40 breeder. Link to comment
Tamberav Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Mine came today, whats weird is he said he couldn't do Tuesday delivery and had to ship right away (he also types in all CAPS). They all are alive although I had a good scare. The package wasn't on my doorstep and I was ready to call UPS and demand to know where the driver delivered it. I decided to check around the house and found the package in the snow on its side over the balcony. I was picturing 5 frozen ice cube gobies delivered to the wrong house. I don't know how it got from "delivered to front door" to in a snow bank in just 15 min. Maybe the UPS guy saw "live fish" and punted it over the side They were in a home made styro package with a heat pack. It is 16 degrees outside which is basically a heat wave. The water in the bag was 65 degrees, the gobies are various sizes and were pretty inactive but now acting normal that they are back in warm water. My only complaint is they shipped all 5 in a small bag with about 1.5 cups of water in it. My thought was.. if one perished, it might pollute the water and all 5 would end up dying. Hope yours make it safely! Link to comment

Hope yours make it safely! What a trip for those guys... Thanks for the heads up. Luckily, I live in Miami so it should be a non stop flight with a warm landing for mine. Hoping for the best and enjoy yours! Link to comment
