I think they only get 3 inches, I am not sure about ideal tank size, I imagine nothing too big, they will breed at 1.5 inches. They look soo cool! But small.

This Sleeper is a monster!

That is a beast! I had that same species for years, I had no idea they got that huge.
Cool thing about those is they are pretty active for a sleeper goby. Its kinda like having a giant knight goby. Great looking Sleeper Oddball. (I saved that pic of course)

Understandibly so. its music to my ears to hear you say that! especially since you keep and have kept lots of different fish too!!

If you ever put him in a tank with sand, they leave their eyes exposed like thalassophryne amazonica.

Are you using a feeding stick with silversides/shrimp to feed him?
