Anybody know anything about FIre FIsh Gobies breeding? THings like how to tell male/female (which I believe is not possible) and any info on what they do when the breed, and where eggs go & what not.

Thanks,

Joe:
So i'll say to you what i say to others....
check out the breeders registry.
http://breeders-registry.gen.ca.us/
This site is the most comprehensive as far as breeding marine ornamental fish.
So a quick scan..
I found "Nemateleotris decora"
and someone has bred it

AS far as sexing...read their description
good luck

Thanks!!

That link told me LOTS! I have determined that my pair IS breeding. I noticed lately that holes are being dug in my sand. THe fish do the lating ritual dance, and the eggs are laid, abandoned, and eaten. Too bad they don't take care of the eggs! Guess I am not getting any babies from them, unless of course I take the eggs out. Its worth a shot!

Thanks again!
