Prehistoric Dragon Goby

Prehistoric Dragon Goby

The freshwater prehistoric dragon goby looks like something out of the ancient past. These little beasts are actually peaceful and will only consume the smallest of aquatic species such as fancy shrimp. In the wild these gobies sift through mud for small critters to eat, in the aquarium they readily adapt to scavenging and frozen foods or live black worms. We import our dragon goby from Ecuador. Dragon gobies adapt to brackish and freshwater fish tanks, but a little salt is a good idea even in a fresh water aquarium. Also, regarding salt, we put about four ounces to 20 gallons, but these fish are a hit or miss. If they do not like your water they may perish within a week, so don't fall in love with them too quick, and let customer service know if you have issues.
