Preferably local, mine just died after 2 years in my bio cube so I'm looking for 2-4 more

Will trade for baby clown gobies equipment or cash

the problem with ora is they won't mate(all one sex i think)which is why i got wild ones brought in

they are only 1/8 long and the thickness of an eye lash right now.lost a lot of them during the night or they could be in the copillera.i counted about 20 in one corner of the 40 gal long and a few more throughout the tank.now that i have a mated pair i should be getting more babies that will live longer

That's wicked! I have yet to see anyone local who has saltwater babies of any kind. Congrats on that success. These guys better then a cleaner shrimp or what is there purpose or do mostly.

they clean parasites off other fish.unfortunately none of the fry survived past the third day-probably due to the jellyfish.good news is there is another clutch of eggs.this time i'll hatch them in a grow out tank-or if i'm too late i'll transfer them right away

enriched rotifers for 2 weeks then slowly switch to enriched live brine for another 2 weeks.then after that to my homemade veggie mix and brine with pureed seafood.
