Ambligobius rainfordi



This attractive fish has alternating orange and greenish stripes running down the body, and a spot on the base of the second dorsal fin and just before the tail. Do not keep it with pugnacious tankmates, as this is a peafeful fish. Rainford's goby can be very secretive, especially when first added to the tank and will remain hidden if it is picked on. This species is rarely aggressive towards other bottom-dwelling fishes, with the exception of closely related forms. It will do best in a tank that has some filamentous green algae, which it will graze upon.

Feeds on small bottom-dwelling invertebrates and algae, provide a varied diet that includes frozen preparations for herbivores. Does best if filamentous algae present in the tank.
