I have a new bio cube 14 as some as you know but i was looking into smaler fish and I really like the neon gobies. there is one petco, that is sooo tiny. Has anyone had one of these? Are the easy to care for and feed? Will they be fine in a reef tank or do they put sand every where? The one at petco never is in he sand, but is all ways roaming the rocks.

They don't mess with the sand. They are one of my favorites. They will even preform cleaning services to other fish! The ones at Petco are captive raised as well!!! ------------- http://www.customaquariumfurniture.com" rel="nofollow - Bad "censored" Cabinets Best quality in the valley!

Ok, i will get one soon. Yea I have just done a bit of research and they seem great. They just seem expensive for sucha small fish! Iguess they are worth it ------------- "The early bird might get the worm, but only the second mouse gets the cheese." |

Petco should be about $9. Most all other stores are $19 :) ------------- http://www.customaquariumfurniture.com" rel="nofollow - Bad "censored" Cabinets Best quality in the valley! He is one sexy bald guy, even with out a finger!(MAC) |

That's a bummer. I got one for my office tank for 9.99 on friday. I have noticed that different petco's sometimes have different prices. ------------- http://www.customaquariumfurniture.com" rel="nofollow - Bad "censored" Cabinets Best quality in the valley!

I added a neon goby to a tank with a blue dot jawfish yesterday. The jawfish ate it after about 2 seconds in the tank. The goby tried to swim out of its mouth a few times before it became an expensive snack. ------------- 150 gal reef with 50 gal sump. Reef Octopus DCS-200 Skimmer. AI Sol Blues. |

I have one in my 90 gallon. He has a cave and is guarenteed to be there every night. During the day he swims around the rock as well as cleaning every fish in my tank.
