Description
Stiphodon rutilaureus Goby. Natural Range: Papua New Guinea and northern Australia Source: Harvested from Nature Estimated size at shipping: 0.75-1.25" Adult Size: around 1-1.5" Overview: One of the most stunning fish in the world! Once they settle in, males develop bright red coloration on their sides and unpaired fins. The fins also develop intricate patterns of white and black. The face becomes bright blue. This is a jewel of a fish. Gobies from the genus Stiphodon are nature's clowns. Their modified fins and mouths allow them to scoot along surfaces, often upside-down, as they search for food. In addition, many species in the genus are stunningly beautiful. A group of them displaying and dancing is a sight to behold. Setup Considerations: While males do complete for status with one another, they are not nearly as. Source: Dan's Fish stock list.
