Black clown goby

[Josh_boss]

Hi reefers, I have a black clown goby that I had for about 3 months now. I personally only seen it eat live baby brine shrimp, I am tired of hatching brine because I don’t know how to raise it to adult and I also just don’t want to keep buying the hatch mix. Any ideas how to get this fish eating regular food lol. I also have tried soaking the pellet food and smashing it all up then MAKE IT RAIN! Right over it! I never see it eat tho. It lives in my stylo coral and seems happy and healthy but idk what it’s eating because I only fed the brine shrimp 3x so far. I feed NLS for all the fish daily.

every Clown Goby I have ever had was a big pod eater. On occasion I would see it eat regular food but not often. It must be managing ok if it’s still alive.

I feed my with frozen artemia and frozen freshwater cyclops. I had 4 during a period of nearly 3 years. Sorry to say I have only one left. They seems not to have a long life span. They have only eaten this in my aquarium

Yeah I figured it was eating something, I don’t have a source for pods, only what grows in the sump

My clown gobies will eat small pieces of food.
I use clams,oysters,mussels, shrimp,squid,freeze dried plankton,fish eggs and octopus with flounder or some other sw white fish. Blend it all up freeze and cut into cubes. My clown gobies go nuts.
