Catalina Goby (Lythrypnus dalli) ?s

1. has any one kept one of these fish?

2. are there any other nano fish that i can keep with a pair of hese fish?

3. are there any corals i can keep with these fish?

 

If you can not keep the temp below at the most 74F they will be short lived. The are a temperate water fish.

I have kept them in small groupings in nanos without any aggression issues.

But again they will only live for a couple months if that in the average aquarium.

They are collected off the coast of California in what most would consider cold water. There are not a lot of corals, as most think of them there. Mostly algae, sponges, and gorgonians.

They are best suited for a bio-type system reflecting the costal areas of California, a chiller is really an excellent idea as well.

 

thanks for the info. so theres no other fish that like 68f water?

 

Sure no problem,

I will look around for a small fish, colorful that you can keep in groups better suited for your system.

I like these, but you can only keep a pair.

Saltwater Aquarium Corals for Marine Reef Aquariums: Neon Blue Goby - Tank-Bred

Another good choice, although I have not kept these.

Saltwater Aquarium Fish for Marine Aquariums: Red Striped Goby

I like these in small groups as well, they seemed pretty hardy and bigger swimmers.
