basser1 Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 Here's a pic of my red-head gobie Link to comment
nUgZ Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 Argent- Great shot!! The colors on that fish are beautiful. How big is he?? Mr. Piranha- Lets see some shots of the other two. phil- Is your 58 taller or wider? I would imagine that it could easily be done. IMO easier if the tank was wider. Link to comment
musicawal Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 My yasha in my 5.5, I can't seem to catch his shrimp out much. I also have a YWG and Tiger pistol combo in my 10 I'll try to get pics of them too. Sorry for the blurry pics he doesn't sit still long! Link to comment

Oh i'd say hes about, lamost an inch. and theres not going to be any more shots of any of them for the time being, theyve all gone into hiding, they stick around the rockworks these days but they do eat. cant seem to coax them out of there.

phil121 Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 nugz - my 58 is 36 long, 18 deep and about 23 tall.... I think it would work just fine. I'll try to get a shot of my goby this weekend and stick him on here. Link to comment
brettamey Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 Here's my addition to the nano goby thread: This is my neon goby, RLG. He (?) is named in honor of my awesome, but now deceased, clown goby, Little Guy. That's right, folks... this is Real Little Guy. Here are two more shots of RLG with his buddy, an as yet unnamed Bi Color Blenny. They hang out together all the time, sometimes perching side by side on my center rock structure. RLG is most definitely the braver of the two. Any movement in or outside of the tank and he's there to check it out, while the blenny freaks and goes to hide in his hole in the rocks. Link to comment
Alexraptor Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 Lovely Neons, btw are neon gobies compatible with Eviota gobies? Link to comment
yardboy Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 I really do make a concerted effort to find out as much as I can about a critter before I put it in my tank, but somehow I missed the information that a rainfor goby is a sand sifter. I put one in my 10 with oolitic sand and began to see sand on top of my zoanthids and Acan located down low. Finally caught the little bugger, with my eyes, not with the camera! Somewhere along the line, I missed the tidbit about goby/shrimp pairs being so destructive of a tank, continuously moving and re-moving sand and even sizable rocks! I've had this pair (Randall's goby/Tiger shrimp) for over 18 months and that's about the scene every day in that tank! Link to comment
brettamey Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 Lovely Neons, btw are neon gobies compatible with Eviota gobies? Cant say for sure, but I would think so. I am only saying this because neons are considered "cleaners" and will clean their tankmates and eat parasites. BUT, unless they are a mated pair, they seem to have trouble with their own kind. Easily the coolest fish Ive had in a while. Id like another one, but unless I could make sure that the new one is of the opposite sex, it would be a risky endeavor. Link to comment
Argent Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 nugz - Bruce is probably about 3" long or so - and this morning I couldn't find him! :ohnoes: no worries - he managed to escape in to my rear center chamber and I was able to net him and return him to the display! Link to comment
nUgZ Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 Glad you found him. It's not very nice when they do things like that though. Link to comment
fraggle rockette Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 here's my little guy on his usual lookout: Link to comment
seahorsejl Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 here's my little guy on his usual lookout: Great picture! I am trying to get a good picture of when my yellow clown goby hides inside my long tentacle plate ... but the angle is really hard to get a picture (and of course the swaying tentacles don't help much either).

HammyDavisJr Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Here is Turd Ferguson before my tank broke. I got him from our LFS. They had 3 High Fins in the same tank, my friend bought 2 and I bought 1. Now he's in foster care in my friends 75 gallon, back home with his family where he will stay. There is no way I'll ever catch him again. Link to comment
MDeth Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 My Randall's Goby (w/o his pistol shrimp) For some reason the pistol likes to hide. I'm looking to get a Rainford pretty soon (after I finalize my rockwork and just have a frag-rack) Link to comment
MDeth Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Danke Your YWG is pretty too. I think I have a goby fetish Gobies and blennies are about the only fish I like....probably because they dont aggitate too much Link to comment
Argent Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 I wish I would see my Pistol shrimp come out Link to comment
seahorsejl Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 BTW, this is an awesome time-lapse picture of the shrimp in action! Link to comment
MDeth Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 BTW, my Randall's goby is named Randall! ^Original name Link to comment
