Green Mandarin Goby - Female

Green Mandarin Goby

The Green Mandarin Goby is one of the most colorful creatures on the planer. Most beginner saltwater aquarium owners will buy one and kill one. These gobies need special care - live food and clean water. Primarily a bottom-dweller, the Mandarin Goby will "hunt" across the substrate and rock for live food to graze on. It is slower and more methodical than most reef fish, and cannot compete with more active or aggressive tank mates for food.
