There he goes again!...Some huge trade is on its way coming soon. Aye, you did have Geophagus and a breeding pair lasted about 72 hrs with you; right? Now you want them again?...Loco mucker!!! :crazy:
Rich, I love the Tropheus a lot; but I have never had them because I feel pretty scared about how easily they can get bloat.

...well if you like gobies...what about Sculpin....they are small little monsters ^_^ i have 1 adult prickly sculpin 2 babies under 1 1/2 inch
and 2 mottled sculpin around the same size.
cold water..only get to about 6-8 inches...and will eat anything just over half there own size...easy to train on pellets/frozen food..here are mine ^_^
few of the adult (female)...and one of the mottled...they are close to the gobies^_^
and have tons of personality! .....just an idea

I fed my trophs and gobies NLS. Yes they are an interest group to have in a tank

Me too on the NLS, though I don't have tropheus. My gobies seem to do well on it (Thera A formula 1mm), although I did lose one to bloat... Restricting how much they eat is important - they love to eat way too much. I also give them a little of Ad Konings "shrimp mix" recipe occasionally. Crush any flakes up very small.

I have 3 spathodus erythrodon, two appear to be a pair since always together. I'm really hoping to captive spawn these guys. I;ve never found any that weren't wild caught. In general they have no tolerance for other gobies, so they have to be in a big tank with heavy rockwork - still be prepared to separate them if need be. Over the weekend at a swap I picked up 3 Tanganicodus irsacae for my 90gal. Couldn't resist! Gobies rock!:headbang2:

Here's a pic of two of my erythrodon (below the Boop's head) and another pic of one of them staring into the camera-they're very curious:
