Rehype Posted October 19, 2013 Author Share Posted October 19, 2013 Really? I remember all of your other fish but those ones. Bummer on the lack o' shoal, back to the drawing board I guess. Again. Weak. Well it couldve just been my tank was too small.. gobies? what kind of look are you going for? tropical tidepool? possibly. more of a shallow reef bommie. 1 Quote Link to comment
VABumpkin Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 I think some ugly/cute caribbean gobies might be for you. Redheads, Rusties, Neons, Masked, Greenbanded, etc. That will give you a natural, not too showy look. There's also some very nice and small Pacific gobies that pop up from time to time ie: blue eyed dart gobies. Quote Link to comment

Nano sapiens Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 How about a family of bonkers Barnacle Blennies in there? I especially like this one, but I have yet to see it for sale: http://www.fishbase.org/Photos/PicturesSummary.php?ID=46774&what=species 4 Quote Link to comment

1.0reef Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 What about unusual shrimp gobies? A rare and pricey one could be a Magnificent shrimp goby, White cap, Dracula, or simply a less commonly seen one. Like A. diagonalis 1 Quote Link to comment
buddythelion Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 White caps would be so cool. Would be an expensive jumper if it did jump though. I've always wanted one but I'm 99% sure that my golden dwarf eel would eat it lol. I saw this on blue zoo if someone didn't point it out yet. Red vs the usual yellow. Says 1.5-2" http://www.bluezooaquatics.com/productdetailcc.asp?did=11&cid=365&pid=20189 2 Quote Link to comment
NirvanaandTool Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Wow Hype. What you've posted so far looks AWESOME. Love the air plants. No gobies! Stick with the scorp theme. Unless the gobies are going to be expensive meals for the scorps in which case Hype is even more of a baller than I thought! White caps would be so cool.

Only problem with them is they change color based on their surroundings so your bright red or bright yellow leaf may turn a different color once in your tank. And they are tougher to wean than most scorps. I'm hesitant to get one just on that fact, dont want to have to feed live for the life of the fish. 2 Quote Link to comment
dyazdani Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Great tank! They have a large edgeless tank at my LFS in Clifton, NJ, looks really slick... Quote Link to comment

A rare and pricey one could be a Magnificent shrimp goby, White cap, Dracula, or simply a less commonly seen one. Like A. diagonalis Again great choices but wouldnt make sense to spend that mush cash on a fish that has a 82% chance of jumping. White caps would be so cool.

They have a large edgeless tank at my LFS in Clifton, NJ, looks really slick... Thanks alot..yea ive seen the one at Absolutely fish..nice store although a bit overpriced. 1 Quote Link to comment

Way more fun feeding ghost shrimp and chunks of silversides than brine and mysis lol Or go prey and let me snag all the cool scorps. Quote Link to comment
