Desert Goby Care

[Steph’s Fish and Plants]

Hi guys,

So my LFS just got in some Desert Gobies and I want to get them but I wanna know what I’m getting into before getting them, but I have yet to find any good info online. Has anyone cared for these before and can elaborate or maybe point me toward a source for some good information? 
 

thanks 😊

Seriously fish has info on them.  I trust them as a good source.  I've looked into them before and they seem to fit in wide array of parameters which is a good thing.

Seriously fish is a great resource. I’ve kept them before and had them spawn. Our water is a little on the hard side but they are pretty adaptable. The males can be hard on the females and you may need to separate them. Ours would spawn in 3” seed pod and the male would stay with the eggs until hatched. If you want to keep the fry and grow them out I’d pull the breeding site as soon as I saw a fry or sooner. Ours would eat everything from pellets to flake to frozen to live. We really enjoyed watching their antics, they are quite entertaining. Good luck!
