Description: The Diamond Goby features small, brilliant orange diamond shapes across its fluorescent white body. This fish is one of the most beautiful goby species for the home aquarium. It is a very timid fish that makes a great addition to the reef tank because of its longevity. A tight- fitting lid is a MUST. The Diamond Sleeper Goby uses shallow burrows in the substrate as refuge, keeping the substrate well-oxygenated. The Diamond Goby feeds off the bottom as it sifts through the sand. Its diet should include a variety of live and frozen brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, live black worms, and prepared foods for carnivores.
