Longfin Sleeper Goby

The Longfin Sleeper Goby is a tremendous sand sifter and is a very active as well. It is a peaceful fish, and it is great for aerating and maintaining the sand bed through sifting the sand and gravel in search of food. A tank must incorporate much live rockwork, where it loves to build small borrows under the same. The Longfin Sleeper Goby mainly burrows in the sand for safety, and therefore a thick sand bed is required to be added in your tank. It looks amazing how they take mouthfuls of sand and then spits them out all on the sand bed. Due to this action, you might see your stones and gravels lying at every corner of the tank. The Longfin Sleeper Goby is very good at jumping; therefore it is advised to keep them in a covered tank. More often it pairs up with shrimps to secure their burrow. The Longfin Sleeper Goby fish can be well adapted in any aquarium and even can be seen spawning in some reef tanks.
