$22.99

The Candidus Goby (Rhinogobius candidianus) is an uncommon species to find in the trade. These freshwater gobies are native only to Taiwan in the rivers surrounding Lake Candidius (Sun Moon Lake). The Candidus Goby prefers cold to sub-tropical temperatures in well-oxygenated, moving water. They are generally peaceful towards tankmates, but can become territorial with other gobies, especially other males. Since these gobies only grow up to 3 inches long, they are a versatile and unique addition to a freshwater aquarium!
