Dear all goby-lovers, I uploaded here a pdf with the gobioid species found in Herre, 1927. Since most of these names are now not valid anymore, I made a small ...
Hello there, today i went to my local LFS which is A5 Aquatics in leicestershire and bought 2 delightful little gobies. The only problem is that i cannot I.D...
Hi, It is a Stiphodon species, it is probably ornatus as they are occasionally imported. If they are a true pair, then it is best to leave them...
