The Needlespine Coral Goby is a cheerful addition to any marine aquarium. In addition to its vibrant body colour, the active and peaceful Needlespine Coral Goby is often seen perched on live rock or coral right out in the open or hovering in the water column in plain view for hobbyists to enjoy. Though the adult size is a mere 5cm in length, the stocky shape and very large head gives the Needlespine Coral Goby a quiet, yet commanding presence in the home aquarium.
Since the Needlespine Coral Goby is peaceful, it makes a wonderful addition to any reef aquarium containing colonies of polyp corals. Care needs to be taken, however, with SPS corals since the Needlespine Coral Goby may nip at the smaller polyps.
For the best care, house single specimens in a 35 litre or larger aquarium, preferably with branching coral to best recreate the natural habitat of the Needlespine Coral Goby. It will rarely demonstrate aggression towards other fish, but will fight with its own kind especially in smaller aquarium systems. Therefore, it is best to keep the Needlespine Coral Goby with other docile species.
The Needlespine Coral Goby’s diet should consist of a variety of brine shrimp, frozen mysis shrimp, and frozen food preparations for carnivores.
