Ghost Goby (Fusigobius pallidus)

Overview:
The Ghost Goby is a small, peaceful marine goby with a translucent body that allows it to blend seamlessly into sandy and rubble substrates. Its subtle appearance and sand-sifting behavior make it a charming and functional addition to reef aquariums.

Origin:

Feeding:
Omnivorous. Feeds on small invertebrates, detritus, and microfauna. In captivity, accepts finely chopped seafood, mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and high-quality sinking pellets. Requires a sandy substrate for natural burrowing and foraging.

Tank Mates:
