Neon goby covered with itch or mucus


Recommended Posts

Any reeefers experienced their neon gobies covered with itch and yet survived? Or is this their way of getting of rid of itch on by covering themselves up with some sort of mucus?

Hi bro, I got my neon goby the same week as you. It was covered with white spots and sometimes mucus as described as you for the first few days too, but it eventually went away on its own. I'm more concerned about what to feed it hahaha. It has been chasing pellets but fail to eat them cos of its small mouth.

Try giving cyclopeeze or hatch baby brine shrimp for it. These 2 items really fatten up neon gobies.

yeah, their life span is roughly 2 years. The consolation is they do breed in the aquarium.
