Ptereleotris evides
he Scissortail Goby, also known as the Scissortail Dartfish, has a white head and blue body with large dorsal and anal fins. The Scissortail Goby diet should include chopped or shaved seafood, brine shrimp, and mysis shrimp.
Original from Africa, Fiji, Indonesia, Maldives and Vanuatu. It should be housed in a 30 gallon or larger aquarium with plenty of loose coral rubble, and a tight-fitting lid to prevent it from jumping out of the tank. It requires ample swimming room and a sand bottom for burrowing.
It will rarely become aggressive towards other fish, but is territorial, and will fight with its own kind unless they are a mated pair.
