Orange Stripe Prawn Goby

Orange Stripe Prawn Goby
(Amblyeleotris randalli)

well i have one of these and a red strip pistol and they are doing great, but i have yet to see the gogy eat. i have put some frozen mysid shrimp in but he just watches it float around in the tank. i have them in a 12 gal nano that is well established with copepods and such. do you guys and gals think it is eating them? i have had him about a week and he seems to be in good health. not getting skinny or anything. if someone knows where to get live mysid shrimp let me know.

thanks in advance

Calfire

well most likely he's eating the pods, i would still try to get him to eat frozen foods, he also might still be adjusting. i'll see if i can find the website, i don't think they sell mysis shrimp but they do sell you pods and you can just keep repopulating your tank

thanks for the reply. He started to eat the frozen mysid. he looks nice and is fatting up.
