I recently saw some bumble bee gobies at my LFS. Well though were some ridiculously cute fish. I am not planning on getting any, I do not need a brackish tank. However, I am curious about them. Has any one had any interesting experiences with these funny little fish?
 
They are very interesting fishes indeed, you can always set up a mini-brackish tank out of one of those 5 gallon kits they sell. These fish are definitely worth it, and much more interesting for small brackish tanks than puffers.
 
I have a 5 gallon with 5 of these little cuties in it. Not hard to keep in my experience, but...they can be picky about what they eat. They much prefer live food and seldom will take flakes. I feed mine live black worms which I can get at an lfs near me..they always have some available.

Though they can stay in freshwater for awhile, since they are usually young when you get them from the lfs.....they do eventually need BW.
 
Well who knows maybe they can be my first foray into BW sometime. Any pics?
