Clown Gobies

[Magalotti5]

Hey guys,
I have a question I am trying to get a black and white clown goby, a green clown goby and a Catalina goby! I tried live aquaria but it didn't have the black and white clown goby and the green and the Catalina were not in stock.:cry:
So now I need a good place so I can buy these and they have all the 3 gobies I need!

Thanks,

Magalotti5

Hi there!

Let me first ask if you are aware of the difficulty and specifications of keeping a Catalina goby? Would hate to see you waste your money and also the fish lose out as well.

Rev- why are they difficult to keep? Just curious.

Catalina gobies require cooler water temps. They can't tolerate higher temps. We are talking upper 60s for them. Also I don't know how they would like each other in the same tank. I'm guessing they are for a nano so I wouldn't personally recommend it.

Yeah I wanted a Catalina until I saw the 60-70 degree range.... I think all of my tropic fish would take out the new guy if he came along and the tank temp dropped.

I did consider a tank without a heater for one but them I would need a chiller in the summer.... good luck if you buy it

OH ok! I didn't know that so know I will not get the Catalina because if it wipes all my fish i am done there goes a lot of money!
Thanks for you help!
