My dragon goby

[Jnic]

i think he'll eat my cleaner shrimp ???

no i have 5 cleaner shrimp from about 1 year in the same tank

I want one of those!

Right now I temporarily have 1 oscar 1 clown kf and 1 zebra kf in a 30 (they're quite small) I'll plan on moving them to my larger aquarium when they get a bit bigger.

Can you keep one of these with them in the meantime?

i will say try it cuz dragon goby is not a predator and he have live with a snakehead for about 5 month

they can be kept with fish as small as small as bumblebee gobies. i had one for a while in freshwater(i now know they need brackish) that was kept with guppies and bala sharks, he was fine, till he died. love them!!! i kept mine in a 30 he got around 11 inches. i have seen them kept in a 55 and they got around 18 inches. also they get bigger in marine then in brackish for some reason.

@ manlyfish what kind of bait do you use to get an avatar like that?

Nice to see one looking good. Most of the ones at fish shops are skinny and not looking so hot.

Very nice dragon goby, good luck with him.

They can generally be kept with just about any fish, as long as the other fish don't pick on them. They're only a danger to fry, since they are mostly sifting feeders (sucking in sand/silt/food and sifting it through their gills).

Mine went gaga over frozen bloodworms, brine shrimp, small pellets, and even flake food.

I miss mine. He was about 17" when he passed away, from unknown causes. He was in pure freshwater his whole life, and never showed any ill effects. Although most dragon gobies should be kept in at least low end brackish water, for best health benefits.
