Dragon Goby

Introduction

The Dragon Goby (Amblygobius phalaena) is also known as the Bullet Goby or Banded Sleeper Goby. They are easy to keep, peaceful and require a minimum tank size of around 30 gallons. A lid should be used on aquariums housing these fish because they are known to jump. Dragon Gobies are usually only aggressive to other Dragon Gobies, unless they have formed a mated pair. They will sift sand and require a varied diet that can be met with most frozen and dried foods. Dragon Gobies will also eat Flatworms (Red Planaria). This fish usually grows to about 6″.
