New ora fish release!

Hello again everyone, starting this week we began shipping our exclusive ORA Transparent Cave Goby!

Now, you may be thinking, "why would I want a fish that hides in caves all day?" Spoiler Alert: this fish loves an audience! From our own experiences we have found this fish to be always out in the open, or up on rocky perches in full view. A unique addition to any community or reef tank, our gobies are nearly see through and fascinating to watch. Ask your local fish store how you can get your hands on our new aquacultured Transparent Cave Gobies starting this week!

I think that fish just went onto my future fish list.



DESCRIPTION
Sometimes the best camouflage requires no color at all. The Transparent Cave Goby is a translucent fish with orange spots on their flanks and a blue sheen in the unpaired fins. Their internal organs and skeletal system are visible under aquarium lighting. This fish reaches 3” in size and they are typically found confidently hopping among rocky rubble, protecting their territory and hunting small crustaceans. They are not picky eaters and will consume pellets and frozen food. While they are peaceful with most other species of fish, their somewhat territorial nature with conspecifics may limit how many can be kept in the confines of an aquarium. In our experience each specimen needs about a square foot of space to call their own, so in smaller tanks they should be kept singly. In larger aquariums a few specimens can be kept together and their posturing and territorial displays will charm both the seasoned and novice aquarist.
 
Thanks for the support everyone! Make sure to let us know if you end up with one in your aquarium, we would love to see it!
