Firefish Goby

Your live fish or rock may not match the image shown due to natural variations in each species. Each companion animal is different in shape, color, and personality.

 

Firefish Goby (aka Firefish or Fire Dartfish)

With a yellow head, and a body that gradually changes from white to a blush hue or carmine red, this torpedo shaped fish is also known as a Firefish, or a Fire Dartfish. The Firefish Goby is a very timid fish that is best suited for smaller reef tanks. While they do best singly or in groups and are not aggressive fish, a tank smaller than 10 gallons is not recommended for a group of Firefish. This species should be tankmates with passive fish only, and will constantly hide if kept with extremely active fish. The Firefish is a jumper as well, so a covered tank is recommended.

Enjoys a varied diet, including but not limited to brine shrimp, daphnia, mysis shrimp, zooplankton, and carnivore-specific frozen foods.
