− | = | + | |sexing=:Very difficult to sex visually and challenging to breed in captivity. |
− | + | |tank_compatibility=:Best kept in a peaceful brackish community tank. Do not keep with larger predatory fish due the Goby's size. They are known to nibble long fins, so only keep with short-finned fish. | |

− | :Very difficult to sex visually and challenging to breed in captivity. | + | |identification=:Often mislabelled as ''[[Brachygobius xanthozonus]]''. The body of this little fish is elongated and round. The base colour is mustard yellow with 4 broad vertical black bands, the first is over the eye with white lips, the next two are on the body and the last is on the caudal peduncle. Small black specks are sometimes on the yellow base colour in between bands also. The dorsal and adipose fins have black colouration, the other fins are mostly translucent. |
