thinking about a twin-spot goby
 
I am thinking about adding a pair of twin-spots to my tank.
Everything I read so far says you should have a pair, boy and girl.
How do you sex these?

Anybody seen any around (vancouver area)?

words of caution?...

thanks

Make sure you have a lot of life in your sand as that is the main food source for your Two Spots. They usually starve to death because the sand bed either doesn't have enough food to sustain them or they starve after decimating the sand bed fauna.

Twin spots are cool looking fish but apparently quite tricky to switch over to frzn foods. Like stated earlier, make sure you have a mature tank with lots of life in the live sand for them to eat. Mine were trained in 10 days but I've been told that that's an exception, not the rule.

Anthony, you should just get into the business of training fish to eat frozen :biggrin: . You've had great success with seahorses, and what not, so, might be a way to help fellow reefers out :razz:
