i would like to breed them but i first have to know what type it is. found it at petco
it is the one in front of the flounder the first one in the pic
it is the one in front of the flounder the first one in the pic
what type of bumblebee goby is this
- Thread starter sun catfish
- Start date
If I had to guess...I'd say either Brachygobius doriae or B. nunus.
It doesn't really matter which species you have. Their care is all pretty similar, and anything you find on breeding will likely be applicable to this species.

By definition they are two separate species and therefore should not be able to interbreed and produce fertile offspring.
However, there isn't much information on Brachygobius. Most people can't even identify them. So, I have no clue if it would work or not. If it did, and the offspring were fertile, then you'd have proven that those individuals and whatever you bred them with were the same species.
Do you already have BBG's besides these? Comparative pictures might help.

i have one bumblebee goby those arnt mine its a pic i got off the web but the one in front looks like mine alot
I knew I recognized that picture.
Don't have too much hope of IDing them unless you have a dead one preserved. That's about what it takes to ID BBG's to the species level. I have two preserved that I'd like to have identified for certain.
The yellow bands on my BBG's (which I assume are B. doriae) are less pronounced.

the yellow lines on mine are unbroken and have a black head with a gray nose the black stripes also are unbroken and has no black spots on it it also has that crescent moon yellow line in its head
that's how mine look like except the crescent part is less pronounced in most of them. You can't even see it on some of them.
