The Blue Mudskipper (Periophthalmodon septemradiatus) is a fascinating member of the family Gobiidae which like all mudskippers are specially adapted for life outside of the water. Found throughout the coastal Indo-Pacific, this species inhabits tidal mud flats, often in large groups with a defined social hierarchy. In the wild, they are adept predators that use their modified pectoral fins to hop across land and climb trees to catch insects and small crustaceans but in the aquarium will accept most frozen and freeze dried foods. An ideal aquarium setup for this species would include relatively shallow water with plenty of driftwood or other structure emerging above the waters surface giving them space to climb and form territories. Being a primarily coastal species, they will do best in moderate to strong brackish water (salinity of 10-20ppt) and should be kept in groups.

The Blue Dragon Mudskipper is a fascinating member of the family Gobiidae which, like all mudskippers, are specially adapted to spend time outside of the water. Found in coastal areas from India to Indonesia, this species inhabits mangrove swamps and tidal mud flats, often in large groups with a defined social hierarchy. In the wild, this unique species actually feeds largely on algal turf and associated small invertebrates, sifting mud through their large mouths to sort out food particles. In the aquarium, they will typically accept a combination of algae-based diets (like Repashy gels) and frozen spirulina brine shrimp and bloodoworms. The Blue Dragon Mudskipper tends to spend more time underwater than most related species and tends to inhabit more lightly brackish areas and occasionally pure freshwater. They will do best with the addition of some marine salt (5-10ppt).

On the coasts of West Africa, the charming Atlantic Mudskipper (Periophthalmus barbarus) can be found from Senegal to Angola. These facultative oxygen-breathing creatures inhabit brackish waters close to mangrove swamps and lagoons, where they dwell on muddy substrates. These fish will eat a variety of meals in captivity, including feeder fish, frozen food, small insects, and flake food. The males’ brilliant coloring develops during the spawning season. The sexes are virtually identical outside of this season, however, males can be distinguished by their notably more territorial and aggressive behavior. The fish’s highset eyes, which give them a captivating froglike expression and 360-degree vision, are one of their most distinctive characteristics.
