Male Jade goby. Starving. They eat hair algae and invertebrates in the wild, so algae wafers and the occasional meaty treat will suffice. Hit him with prazi-pro, too. For some reason gudgeons tend to be parasite-prone.

Heh, after seeing more pics perhaps I'm just so used to mine's stumpiness that yours looks skinny!

Mine is a short-bodied one:

Orange margin on the dorsal fin and in body. Females look overall more blue and generally lack the orange margin.
 
He is doing fine i guess i need to know what i need to do about feeding time i put food in the tank such as prime shrimp cube and blood worms and they wont eat it unless it falls right in front of them my other fish will just eat it up and they dont really get to eat. So what should i do. they never move around the tank they in one spot. do i need to put live food in there...
 
Food was already stated.
