Hey,

Can anyone tell me what this Goby is, I caught them at a small river 50 yards from the sea in Barbados.

Thanks in advance!

I don’t know if many people are going to know a singular goby from Barbados.

Looks like a specie Stiphodon but not sure.

In the ocean or in a river?

Looks like you have some type of sicydium goby. This appears to be sicydium hildebrandy on the left and a close key related species on the right.
They are algae eaters similar to stiphodons.

In the river (brackish) has some inflow at high tide.
