Scissor Tail Goby

Can someone please give some information about this fish? It might go into a 75 gallon reef. I appreciate all information possible. Thanks!

There are a few species of goby called scissor tailed goby, also assessors which aren't gobies.
If you are talking about Meiacanthus atrodorsalis , they are great fish and are rarely hassled by other fish because they have venomous fangs as all in this genus do which can give an uncomfortable sting. They are not at all aggressive though and make great additions as they have great personalities. Also the fact that they are rarely hassled means they are usually more confident and hide less than other gobies.

Like KB said there are different species, but here are mine. I have had them for over a year. they are in my 125GL reef. Very pieceful they stay together for the most part. I would highly recommend them if this is the fish you are refering to.

Can't get it to display the IMG for some reason so hear is the path if you would like to see them.
