think the guy at the LFS grabbed a diff goby then the one i wanted when i wasnt looking because he didnt have these markings in there tank. today i got home and noticed that my goby paired with my pistol less then 12 hours after addition of him YAAY then i noticed gray markings they look kinda patchy almost like the scales/skin is still there but color is gone? im not sure what else i can say to help...hes eating well and otherwise looks healthy heres pics

just to clairify the dots around his gills look grey but they have nothing to do with the gray splotch on his back as there his blue dots

Can you stand back from the tank a little. We can see the spots you're talking about but the pic really needs to be in focus to assess whether they're natural or disease related :biggrin:
