Signal gobies (I believe the scientific name is Signigobius biocellatus...I'm not sure) are sand sifters. You need a BIG tank with a lot of live sand and live rock to keep them alive. They are almost always found in pairs, and should be kept in pairs as well (at least I think that they should).
I don't believe that their survival rate when kept alone is very good, and their normal survival rate when kept in pair isn't too good either. IMO, these fish should be left in the ocean, inless you have a huge sandbed to support the fish. Stephen |
