Scissor Tail goby

[SeaHorse_Fanatic]

Scissortail gobies are not really diggers. They do need a safe cave or tunnel to hide in or they'll feel totally stressed out. Preferably very calm, non-aggressive tankmates or you'll only see them at meal-times (if you're lucky). Had mine for over a year in a very aggressive angelfish/tang tank & these were my observations. Also, need to keep the tank covered for at least the first couple of weeks, since they are notorious jumpers. Once they're settled in, they're less likely to go carpet surfing.

HTH,
