What type of Goby?

05-19-2009, 12:33 PM

Dan (HAW) talked me into buying this little guy. I don't remember what it was called though. Apparently it eats algae, and it also ate all of my boraras... so I need to sell him but I need to know what it is before Isell him.

Thanks

I think its of the Stiphodon genus.

Newb probably got the common name... seeing as how he works there.

Scarecrow : I haven't got a brain... only straw.
Dorothy : How can you talk if you haven't got a brain?
Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.

Thanks for the help - I'm still not sure exactly what it is, but he does seem to look like he belongs in the gunus Stiphodon.
