Hector's Goby - Amblygobius hectori

The **Hector's Goby** is a sought-after and beneficial fish for aquariums. It features a sleek, elongated body predominantly black with striking yellow horizontal lines. **Hector's Goby** can grow up to 3 inches and requires a minimum tank size of 20 gallons. Known for their peaceful nature, they coexist well with other fish, invertebrates, and corals, making them ideal for reef tanks. Avoid housing them with aggressive larger fish as they are not adept at self-defense.

These gobies thrive in tanks with ample live rock and sand, where they can hide when startled and forage for small invertebrates. They also sift through sand and consume hair algae, adding utility to their charm. **Hector's Goby** is an omnivore, needing a balanced diet of meaty and plant-based foods. Offer them mysis and brine shrimp, nori, marine algae sheets, and high-quality frozen, flake, and pellet foods to ensure their health and happiness.
