This is a rare and exotic species that is sure to impress with its electric colors. It originates from eastern Papua New Guinea, and related to freshwater gobies. This fish is perfectly well-suited for peaceful community tanks, but they may eat small shrimp (like Cherry or smaller fancy varieties). Good filtration and regular water changes are a must.
