Description
The Dragon Goby, also known as the Violet Goby, is a unique, eel-like fish that is a popular choice for saltwater aquariums due to its striking appearance and interesting behavior. It is characterized by its elongated body, large dorsal fin that runs along the length of its body, and a vibrant purple color.
Reef Safe?
Yes, Dragon Gobies are generally considered to be safe for reef aquariums.
Environment
Dragon Gobies prefer a tank with plenty of hiding places, such as caves or rock formations. They also require a soft substrate in which they can burrow. The tank should have a strong filtration system to keep the water clean, as these fish produce a lot of waste.
Behavior
Dragon Gobies are generally peaceful fish, but can be territorial with others of their own species. They are typically bottom dwellers and spend a lot of their time hiding in caves or burrowing in the substrate.

Was a great fish that did an amazing job of cleaning the sand bed. I sadly lost this fish to a tank crash
