Marbled goby ate pellets!

[fishnatics]

I picked up a 2" marbled goby about 3 weeks ago. It's been feeding on the baby venustus and I ran out of venustus to feed it. Been giving it rosie reds but it doesn't seem to like it as much. Today while I was feeding the giant danios I noticed that the goby was picking up the leftover food that fell to the ground so I quickly threw in some Omega One shrimp pellets and it gladly took 6 pellets! I'm so relieved that it's taking pellets. Just wanted to share.
