Hi,

Another common name is rocket goby. They can grow up to 6" or 7" with thick bodies.

Bigger adult are much nicer with reflective neon-like colors compared to small juveniles rather dull grayish silver.

Take almost any kinds of dry food, brime, shredded shrimps n other types of meaty food if available. Fast competitive eaters n dont keep with other shy fishes. But general not aggresive to other fishes.

Preferred tanks bigger than 20g cos need lots of hidding space otherwise will become very panicky n jump out of your tank, as the name says rocket!

If possible get at least a pair cos they school in the wild. (not go to school lah, hahah..)

Readily available locally in different sizes n prices ard $5 to $8 so good to shop around!

Cheers.
