A terrific little fish for the passive reef tank. It prefers coral rubble and branches to hide in, as well as for spawning. It will also sift through the substrate in search of food and if there is not established substrate in the tank, it will need many feedings a day. |

The Green Clown Goby (Gobiodon atrangulatus) is sometimes called an Earspot Coral Goby. It belongs to the family named Gobiidae. Typically reaching a max size of about 1.5 inches in length, the Green Clown Goby is passive in nature and hardy in stamina. It's more active during the daytime and less at night, and will hang out or do best in the lower tank area. According to FishDB current data, captive breeding success is good and there are no external signs of sexual differences. Gobiodon atrangulatus should not be housed in a tank less than 30 gallons in size. Tank parameters should be maintained with ph level between 8.1 - 8.3, temperature between 77 - 79 degrees fahrenheit, and a salinity between 1.020 - 1.023. Some of the environmental concerns that you should strive to replicate in your home aquaria to promote succesful acclimation include plenty of hiding places and a well established aquarium.
