    I think one of my yasha gobies is pregnant! I never knew how to tell the difference in sexes, but one now has a huuuuge belly and is eating insane and the other one is getting very protective/territorial over their den (which has never been the case).

    Anyone experienced this? I tried searching but couldn't find anything.

    It's pretty interesting!! If this is the case, I guess it means they are in love :sweethear

    I've had them over a year.

    Please hop over to the MBI website, mbisite.org and share your experiences breeding this fish in a breeding journal. People will surely help you find proper larval foods and give you tips and pointers.
