I.D. my goby?

Avid_aquarist · 10-03-2004, 12:39 AM

i actually have 2, one is about 1/2" and the other just a little smaller than that.
it is whitish with dark grey vertical bands that fade to smal spots on its head. it also has a dark spot on its first dorsal fin.
they came in in my live rock i suppose, they would easly fit in any of the many caverns.
ill check google to see if i can find a decent pic

thanks!

Are there any small blue spots or yellows on these?

What part of the world is your LR from and how was it shipped/picked up?

cant see any spots (There really small), from here in hawaii (had to step through some legale loop-holes).

I was told this was called a Pink and Blue Spotted Goby. The one in this picture is about 3.5" - 4" long though. Probably looks totally different than he did at 1/2".

do they have a shark-like first dorsal fin? i caught a lizardfish last night and it had the same dorsal pattern. i think thats what it might be.... but hopfully "Skitters" the squirrelfish eats them. (i hate lizardfish.)
