Its some kind of crustacean like pod. my tank also have. Is it can swim and move quite fast? I always see my mandarin try to catch it, but he too slow lols

Yes. Just added it today. I'm guessing it is stressed since it is newly added.

I have been looking for a greeen banded goby, but cant find. I bought this goby because it looks some what like it, but i dunno what is the name. Can anyone tell me what it is? ty

Hello! I have been looking up and down for my green banded goby (the one in my avatar), but to no avail. I recently found this goby, which is the closest possible match to the green banded goby.... Well, not very very similar, but abit close. However, i have no clue what the goby is. Anyone know the name? Please let me know ty Here is an image

Catalina goby isit the red one with blue stripe? That one also very nice. But this one more cool leh haha!. the red colour line at the head look like robocop =)

Yes indeed it is a very cool fish, and it is not uncommon too! Apparently it is quite commonly found in the carribean. The demand is low, thats why cannot find... If i buy online. must pay for shipping fees and convert USD to SGD. very ex... 2 gobies, each $15 USD, bring to singapore = $100+++ because of shipping and currecny convert. Henry said if he see it will let me know, and ill let u know too!

BTA can expand or contract their bubble tips. At times, the bubbles will be inflated/deflated. If it is very long and thin, it could mean that there is not enough light, and it is stretching to gain light.

Thank you so much for the encouragement =) The male is doing well. the eggs are visible when he opens his mouth for stretch! Pink colour. looks so delicious. caviar!

Cleaner wrasses (labroides dimidiatus) have spawn in captivity. It is unknown about the hatching of fry till adult hood, but it is evident that cleaner wrasses have spawned before! Anyone have any experience with this? I found it in this website http://www.marinebreeder.org/phpbb/viewtop...asc&start=0 Sounds very interesting! Hope you guys enjoy reading the article =)

Haha! hmm, they love the little hang over behind the tank. I guess thats their HDB! always hanging out. and when i turn off the lights at night, when all the fishes are asleep, they dart around the tank. a real joy to watch

Thank you for the link. Will try my best to keep them alive.... very unexpected this birth, so im not really prepared haha

If im not wrong, their seahorses are trained to eat on mysis? and captive bred should be more ex than WC. Anyway, i have not much interest in seahorses haha. But pipefish. ooo i love them

Very well explained. Hope this will teach all reefers (including me) a lesson. Failure is a stepping stone to success, if u dont fail now, u will never learn. Happy reefing

Yea... i expected much. Sad to say that alot of rare fish are still being exported, even from those isolated areas from time to time. Green banded goby is very nice and fairly common, unfortunately it is not high in demand. Perhaps i can special order... or buy online =x

Anyone seen semilarvatus recently? (golden butterfly) heard from fellow reefer that ah beng and pacific marine have. isit expensive? i know that can only be found in red sea and gulf of aden, so maybe quite pricey? haha it looks very cool. Oh, and has anyone seen green banded goby? Its the one in my avatar. Haha, if anyone see the goby pls let me know.... very hard to find Cheers =)

where is sealife? O.o

Bro, cheong, cheong go where haha =) where go stock? Saturday i went to iwarna, saw they have alot of very nice purple tang. Super chio the colour. Dam tempting leh

Yea its good to learn buying tips. Last time i kena before. Don't buy things too cheap..... last time i kena from one LFF in pasir ris. dun wan asy which one. They sell yasha goby and candy pistol shrimp pair in plastic. both for $10 only. i tot wa so cheap buy. bring home, the yasha dissapear. i think die. Few days later i went to ML, was having a chat with henry and brought up this issue. He say my yasha probably caught with cyanide thats why so cheap. Yashas dont usually go for $10... summore got pistol shrimp pair? I tio bad purchase lor. everybody learns =) its part and parcel of the hobby! cheers!

Stunning. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE the green carpet. Totally psychadelic! Very retro the colour. =) And i like ur mushrooms also

The seahorses from J!@#$ M@$#!# are captive bred i think. Should be

Elephant ear will eat ur fishes, but they are very slow. Ur fishes should be fast enough to escape if they are healthy =) Usually eat those that are dead or dying only. cheers!

Anyone selling this rare gem? Or have seen it in any LFS/LFF? Looking for it but cannot find. If anyone have/seen it, pls pm me ^^ Here it is, probably the nicest looking goby IMO

You can try adding small nano gobies!! like green banded goby and spike fin goby. I love the green banded, my fav, but haven seen any in any LFS as of yet... Here are their pics!

where exactly is sealife? O.o

I agree, it does look like Seriatopora caliendrum
