Rainford's goby?!

natezimm · 08-21-2003, 09:15 PM

Hi to TRT community! I recently bought a fairly thin rainford's goby from my lfs (as a result, I got a good deal). My tank is well established and as a results lacks much of the microalgae they enjoy eating. Any suggestions from those who have had success? Any and all help is appreciated!

I drop one or two of Wardley Spirulina Discs and let them sink to the bottom of the tank for the bottom dwellers and they love it! They are 100% vegetable conditioning food and these discs are for both freshwater and saltwater fish.
You can buy algae and place it in the tank for them to eat every now and then.

Mine seems to like the macroalgaes but Mine will graze on my Tang's Nori Clip.

They also seem to eat a lot of zooplankton that flourishes in established tanks, according to my friend that managed an LFS and was into reef, they don't do well in newer cleaner tanks because of the lack of proper hunt and graze, FWIW
