Description
The Yellow Clown Goby is a small, brightly colored saltwater fish that is popular in the aquarium trade. They are known for their vibrant yellow color and the interesting behavior they exhibit, often perching on coral or rock formations in the tank. They are generally peaceful fish that get along well with other species.
Reef Safe
Yes, they are generally safe for reef tanks but may occasionally nip at small-polyped stony coral and some soft coral species.
Environment
Yellow Clown Gobies need a tank with plenty of hiding spots and perching places. They prefer tanks with lots of live rock or coral formations. They can tolerate a range of water conditions, but do best in clean, well-filtered water.
Behavior
These fish are generally peaceful and are known for their interesting behavior. They often perch on coral or rock formations in the tank and will swim in the open when they feel safe. They can be somewhat territorial, particularly with other gobies.

This little fish likes to perch on to corals. They can be harmful to sps coral, as it could pick on the sps consuming some polyps. They can also perch on leather corals. Would not recommend in a sps dominant tank, unless you want to take the risk of this fish picking on the sps. It has a big personality for a small fish and is not afraid of other bigger fish. This fish is peaceful with many other fish, but would not recommend with the same species unless they are partners.

Always out and about. Loves to perch on corals. Not reef safe with sps. Very very small ...
