Best goby for a beginner

Hey I really want a green clown goby but I called around to a couple places and both said they are hard to get to eat and need pods?

so whats the best preferably cheap goby for a beginner

My tank is open top

i have a royal gramma and a ocerilous clown fish

 

sand sifting goby, watchman goby are easy to keep and are pretty cheap.

 

Gobies are jumpers, so you might want a lid.

 

ok ill prob make a screen lid

 

I've heard different things about clown gobies. Some people say they are easy and good for beginners, and others say they are hard to get eating.

I think a watchman goby would be a good choice. They are pretty cool! Not big swimmers, but it would occupy a different space in your tank than your clown and gramma.

 

i have a clown goby starving itself right now. i'm trying to feed it everything and it's not working either. i keep waiting to find it dead. concentration camp fish.

 

k i might get one of those what do they eat and do they jump?

 

They do jump. I'd imagine they would eat what your other guys eat. Just make sure to buy one that's already eating well.

I'm sure someone else will know!

 

k guess ill hav to make a screen top
