This is an amazing nano fish that originates from Southeast Asia. Because of their size and temperament they cannot be mixed with anything large enough to eat it, or aggressive enough to bully it. Small peaceful tetras, or other nano fish like Dwarf Pea Puffers will work well as tank mates. Live plants are a must, as are rocky hiding places. They are highly territorial, so make sure you provide plenty of space if housing more than one (5 gallons per goby).
