Golden Tile Goby - Hoplolatilus luteus
The Golden Tile Goby, Hoplolatilus luteus, also known as the Yellow Tilefish, and Golden Tilefish, is a species of goby that requires at least two inches of sandy substrate in the tank for burrowing. It has a golden/yellow body with a black/purple spot behind its eye. It has clear finnage.
They will spend most of their time sifting and trolling along the bottom of the sandy tank.
The Golden Tile Goby is a peaceful fish with other species but may turn aggressive towards its own species. Some aquarists have successfully gotten their Golden Tile Gobies to spawn in the home aquarium environment, however. The Golden Tile Goby will take a carnivorous diet consisting of chopped brine and mysis shrimp and mixed crustaceans and should be fed twice a day.
