General info about Pink and Blue Shrimp goby
The Pink and Blue Spotted Goby's head and body are yellow to tan with pink spots surrounded by smaller blue spots. It requires plenty of loose coral rubble, ample swimming room, and a sand bottom for burrowing. It rarely becomes aggressive towards other fish, but it is territorial and will fight with its own kind unless they are a mated pair. It may try to jump out of the aquarium or other small openings, therefore, a tight-fitting lid is required.
