Yellow Watchman Goby

[J Feez]

My Yellow Watchman Goby has turned white. Not a pure white but it is significantly lighter in colour than when I first got him and I don't believe his colour has changed gradually since I brought him home a couple months ago. Has anyone had any experience with this? All my tests came up clean showing nothing abnormal. Thanks for your time

what are you feeding him?
try using a macro algae to supplement the diet.
I feed mysis, bine shrimp, and macro algae with a lot of carrotein and my watchman is bright yellow!

hope that helps

I believe that means she's a female.

Even still, she should be yellow. Do you have a sand bed? Mine sifts through the sand when he's hungery.

Now i don't guarantee anything, But i was pretty sure i read somewhere that the female will lose her yellow as she matures.
As in this mated pair.

I thought that only occured when in the presents of a male YWG.
