Engineer Goby Fish

AWYSIWYG – Approx. Size: 1.5-3 Inches Engineer Goby (Pholidichthys leucotaenia) The Engineer Goby, also known as the Convict Blenny, is a fascinating and highly unique fish that brings movement and mystery to your aquarium. Juveniles resemble eels with bold black-and-white stripes, while adults transition into a more muted pattern with a striking head-to-tail gradient. Known for their industrious digging behavior, Engineer Gobies create elaborate tunnel systems beneath your aquascape, often working in pairs or small groups. Tank Requirements Engineer Gobies do best in aquariums of 55 gallons or more with deep sand beds and stable rockwork. Their burrowing nature means aquascaping should be secure, as they may shift sand and base rocks while digging. A tight-fitting lid is also recommended, as they may jump when startled or during nighttime activity. Quiet Diggers, Active Architects These peaceful and hardy fish are ideal for both beginner and experienced reef-keepers. Engineer Gobies s
