What are the care requirements for this goby? Such as minimum tank size, diet, substrate. Are they compatible with other bottom dwellers, coral, inverts?

These small fish live around reefs or on sandy flats. Many of the Gobies are known for their burrowing behavior. These fish use burrows in the sand for safety. Some of the Goby species are known to share their burrows with Pistol Shrimp; behavior that can be duplicated in the home aquarium. Most Gobies have cupped ventral fins that nearly join just below their gill plates that serve as perching mechanisms so the Goby can always be on the lookout in a resting position.

Yikes!!! This one is 4"!!! :bigeyes2: Sounds like a great deal people.

This is what I found:
Tiger Watchman Goby
Valencienna wardii
Great for keeping your sand bed clean!
Description: The Tiger Watchman Goby is also known as the Ward's Sleeper, or Tiger Sleeper Goby . It should be housed in an aquarium with live sand as the substrate. It will rarely become aggressive towards other fish, but it is territorial. Usually the Tiger Watchman Goby will feed off the bottom sifting through the sand. Very hardy.
Recommended Tank size: 50 gallon
Feeding and Diet: The diet should consist of a variety of live and frozen brine shrimp, and prepared foods .

Great beginner fish, extremely Hardy
Great in Reef or Community Tanks

i would like to take it...but i have a lawnmower blenny and a sand sifter goby, will i have a prob?
oh i have a 90gal

 

[Deanos]

I don't think so SJ. I think the sand-sifter and tiger gobies will squabble when they cross each other's paths, but will eventually define their own territories.
