Care notes:
The Orange Spot Goby is a peaceful, sand-sifting goby recognized by its pale body adorned with bright orange spots and distinctive markings. It requires a deep sand bed for burrowing and sifting, which helps keep the substrate clean and aerated. This species does well in tanks with ample live rock and hiding places. It accepts a diet of meaty frozen foods, sinking pellets, and other prepared foods. The Orange Spot Goby is reef safe and generally compatible with peaceful tank mates.
