Gobies are an excellent addition to reef aquariums as they have a small adult size and a lot of personality. The Yasha Shrimp Goby is one of the most beautiful nano gobies available and will only grow to be about 2". They are known for creating a symbiotic relationship with pistol shrimp. They can be seen sharing a burrow, which makes an awesome display! This goby is very hardy and are reef safe. When possible, they should be the first bottom dweller added so they can claim their territory. Since these are cultured specimens, they will readily take to prepared meaty diets with ease. Provide a varied meaty diet and initially you may need to try target feeding about twice a day. Be aware this goby is known for jumping when startled so be sure to have lid on the aquarium. The Yasha Goby's body is white with red horizontal stripes covering their body and head. Their fins are a light-yellow coloration, so they are bound to stand out.

Directions
ACCLIMATION: Avoid exposing new aquatic life to bright lights after opening the box. Turn off aquarium lights prior to floating aquatic life. Allow the sealed bag with your new fish to float in your aquarium for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than one hour) to ensure the water in the bag matches the temperature in your aquarium. A bacteria booster addition can assist with the addition of new aquatic life. Petco offers free water testing in store to determine if your water is safe for the addition of new aquatic life. DIET: A well-balanced diet consists of a variety of flakes, pellets, freeze-dried and frozen foods, depending on the species. FEEDING: Feed sparingly and no more than fish can eat in 1-2 minutes. Overfeeding can quickly foul the water, especially in smaller aquariums.
