What can I feed my Stiphodons (that I just got?) Do they require live food only, and do they do better in brackish water than fresh? Also, do they breed in...
... Stiphodons eat algae. So, algae wafers and things like that would probably work. Other than that, you might also feed some small frozen or live foods, but...
... Hi Mike. They were eating Sera flake (crushed), frozen bloodworms, frozen Cyclop-eeze and frozen Piscine Energetics mysis. They picked at the Hikari algae...
... They are algae/aufwuchs grazers and your tank should have plenty of wood/stones/plants with a mature growth of algae for them to graze on. I have seen mine...
Well, I've got a small tank that is so full of green hair algae at this point that they'll probably think they died and went to fish heaven. I'll just portion...
Hi Frank. I'll try the bloodworms and mysis as well. They were still nervous yesterday, and wouldn' touch anything until this morning. I think I got rid...
Hello, Once Stiphodon enter freshwater that is it, do not add sea salts because this will kill them. These are strictly algae eating fish and wafer type food...
Again Stiphodon are strictly vegetarian as juvenile and adult and the only safe food is algae and enriched vegetarian wafers. DO NOT FEED ANIMAL PROTEIN!! Ron...
Stiphdon tend not to feed filamentous algae. They have a preference for scraping algae from rock surfaces. The enriched vegetarian tables will be much easier...
The snails were some nerites I bought, and they seem to have adapted to the salinity ok. I believe most of that group breeds in marine or brackish water...
AnubiasDesign just got these gobies in. It looks like there are three different species. I think the first one is Mugilogobius abei or mertoni. The second...
The first is M. mertoni, then M. chulae, then a Pseudogobius (possibly undescribed - looks like several I have photos of). Do you know where the fish are from?...
... Thanks. I don't know where they came from but I will ask. If it helps, they seem to have been sold as all one species, so I would think they were collected...
... They came from an exporter in Singapore. Mark is going to ask where they were collected, but he may not get an answer. Do you know anything about them that...
Hi folks, I bought these a few weeks ago. I've seen them advertised a lot lately but nobody seems to know just what they are. They look at least similar to...
Several Sicyopus are similar in appearance and coloration. The one photographed appears to be Sicyopus exallisquamulus Watson & Kottelat, 2006. Enjoy gobies, ...
Thank you Jason, The similarity to R.Wui's is certainly there. Much better coloration than and R.Wui's I've ever seen. (I keep R.Wui's and bred them twice so...
... Hi Mike. I saw these on the list as well, and was wondering what they were. Actually, there are a number of gobies on the Vietnam list, and I'll try to...
You are right Frank, Would it be possible to get comments on one more image from Vietnam: http://saigonaquarium.com/showimages/wildfish/Costus%20gobio.JPG I...
looks like an Istigobius diadema in its new spring racing season outfit. If it is, it will not be very happy in freshwater. If it isn't, I dunno. <')////==< ...
sorry, gobygroup members, for inadvertently sending a message meant for Gianluca to you all! Moving house across the country is bad for your mind. just because...
hi Gianluca, may I have a pdf please? We are now in Queensland but all my fish books and files are awaiting shelving before they get unpacked (they were all on...
hi Helen, I sent you the pdf to your old address. I assume it is the email you're talking about. Please let me know if the file reaches you. Cheerio! G...
