Care notes:
The Catalina Goby is a small, vibrant fish native to the Eastern Pacific. It displays bright red coloring with blue vertical stripes and a yellow-tinged tail. This peaceful goby prefers cooler water temperatures and requires plenty of live rock and hiding places. It feeds on meaty foods such as brine shrimp and mysis shrimp. Known for being a jumper, a secure lid is essential. Best suited for experienced hobbyists due to its cooler temperature needs.
