I would love one or 2 jade gobies. going crazy looking for some in West Palm Beach
Hey I'll take one please if you can get some, I want the Water cow, eleotris picta (last pic)
I have an Eleotris picta caught by a friend on the island where I live.
In theory, there are no fresh water fish on the island, its 10 miles off the coast of Panama, but since there is an Eleotris population on Galapagos, its not a stretch, and we believe it hitchhiked in the ballast of one of the many ships that pass thru the canal.
In my tank it hunts either standing on its head, or tail in stands on vallisneria.
It stays hidden most of the time, and is so well camouflaged, it only becomes visible once or twice per month, because I like my tanks be an over grown jungle.

Although its hard to tell (because of the heavy planting) most seem to be fine. The dozen cichlids, 2 tetras, and Pleco all seem a bit to large to swallow so far. Plenty of shrimp have disappeared though, we also have large insects on the island that sometimes land on the tank surface, or I stun, and drop in, all which soon disappear.
Eleotris appeared today in the upper right corner of the tank, in the strike position, and seems to have grown a bit.
Sorry been off for a while I do have lots of gobys I have large scale spiny cheaks, fat sleepers,Jade's, goby darters,emerald gobys,and crescent gobys. I'll give away free if you can explain how I would ship these guys and keep alive you can have one of each lolHello

Jeff
