Knight Gobies ...

 


Knight gobies have an attractive, black-spotted pattern and colourful finnage, and grow to a maximum of just over 7.5cm/3". They are territorial, although a group can be kept together in a spacious tank with plenty of decor.

I have kept 2 knight gobies in a brackish set up along with 4 mudskippers and a red claw crab for nearly 2 years. They have thrived and seem very content.

This store gets more unusual fish than the other petstores in the area. They get random things like Gold Nugget Plecos and Knight Gobies in addition to the regular chain store Tetras, Livebearers, and Cories.

Knight Gobie - Stigmatogobius sadanundio
Kooliad Barb - Barbus tetrazona
Kribensis (Krib) - Pelvicachromis pulcher
Kuhli Loach - Pangio kuhlii
Kuhli Loach "Black" - Pangio javanicus
Kuiper's Loach - Nemacheilus selangoricus ...

Their tankmates are two adult mollies, two large mono argentus, three small ruby scats, one 18 cm silvertip shark, and a pair of black knight gobies. I fluctuate the salinity from 1.005 in the beginning and end of the month to 1.
