I got this guy from the BIOTA group. He is a Court Jester goby. Seems really active and happy in his new home.

NICE! He looks like a fun little addition!

I've had good luck with fish from BIOTA so far. Congrats!

Good luck, sand sifting gobies are a PITA to keep alive IME. Even Biota ones I’ve struggled to keep thriving long term in small tanks.

This little guy isn't a shifter. They love hair algae and pods. BIOTA raised them on prepaid foods. So, crossing my fingers

You’d be surprised, Koumansetta are a sand sifting genus. They easily run out of food within the first year, to keep them on only prepared foods, you’d have to feed up to 4 times a day at the minimum if not 6-8.

He is eating frozen baby brine shrimp. Seems to love it. I named him Spot
