10 Gallon Nano

Looking forward to seeing this all set up with water! Any plans for fish stocking?

No I actually cant make up my mind on what I want.

Could I make some suggestions?

Gumdrop coral croucher. That's what you want.

Lol make all the suggestions yall want. Just make sure to include pics and stats

Hmm... LiveAquaria is easier...

I got some pics from Google Images

Brent: That is a great species but they are venemous. Just be aware that when you're cleaning the tank don't go near them.

The Trimma and Eviota gobies are awesome. They are pretty, interesting, and not very common. They take prepared foods very well. Mysis and Brine is great, they are easy to feed. Many of these species will do well in groups. Trimma Tevegae will even shoal.

Trimma tevegae


The shrimp gobies are always a great addition as well. Shrimp gobies of the genus Stonogobiops are colorful, small, and really interesting. The Hi Fin Red Banded Goby and the Yasha Shrimp Goby are great choices.

I might get the croucher if I move up to a bigger tank. I would like a link for Trimma tevegae if you have one animal.

Let me do some searching for you, if I can't find a good link I can give you some info if you would like.

Edit: I really can't find much

Who would like to give me a quick summary in 5 sentences or less? .

Trimma Rubromaculatus is one of my favorites...

See brent thats one of the gobies I was thinking about going with. I am interested in the Tevegae but il have to do more research when I have time. Worked all day today im going to be gone all day tomorrow and working again friday. Isnt supporting a habit (fish) fun?

Those gobies can be VERY territorial towards each other. You pretty much always have to introduce them at the same time or else they'll beat each other up lol.
They are in general a really peaceful and interesting goby choice.



- Hey I'm a Bluebanded Goby rank! -

Lol I was only planning on having one. With a 10 gallon id rather not go with any pairs or anything like that.

IMO you could definetly go for goby pairs in a tank this size. You could do trios or even more.

A single one is fine though

Oh god man you shouldnt have told me that. You just made this a really fun stocking ;list to choose.

I do have some tank news also. The diatoms have leveled off and the tank is starting to stabalize. The only issue is that my little piece of seed rock is all but dead from the massive diatom bloom I had so I may have to go back and get more rock.

Just got back from Fintastic. Picked up a bottle of bio-spira, A red tepped hermite, a nassarius snail, And *Drum roll* A 1/4 inch long yellow clown goby

Nice! c:

Are you going to buy SPS or keep it a softies tank?

I think im going SPS. Theres a acrpora thats been up at fintastic for awhile I just keep drooling over. Plus I can get 1/2" and 3/4" frags that broke off and are just the coral with no plug $10 a piece or 5 for $40.

Just be careful about the goby irritating them (SPS).

If any of the gobies I get become a problem theyll become the kittens next meal. Corals before fish >.>

Well clown gobies are known to be detrimental to small colonies of SPS...

Question: What do they do to them? I apparently didnt look hard enough for clown goby info >.> Then again it wasnt exactly something I wanted till I seen this little guy.

They eat the mucus of, perch on/play in and lay their eggs underneath SPS coral.

The eggs can cause tissue recession (which isn't a problem in a large colony, but in a small one...) where they are lain. -EDIT: yours may not lay eggs at all.
