Care notes:
The Chalk Goby is a peaceful sand-sifting goby characterized by its pale body and neon blue spots on its cheeks. It requires a deep sand bed to exhibit its natural burrowing and sifting behavior, helping to keep the substrate clean and aerated. This species prefers tanks with plenty of sand and hiding places. It accepts a diet of meaty frozen foods, sinking pellets, and other prepared foods. The Chalk Goby is reef safe and compatible with peaceful community fish.
