Amblygobius linki - T.B.

Amblygobias linki, commonly known as Link's Goby, is a small bottom-dwelling goby. Their body is creme-white with 3 thick horizontal black stripes on the upper half of the body. Their fins are almost transparant with some faint red and yellow color in it. Amblygobius are best known for their sand sifting properties and with linki being one of the smallest, this is one of your best options if you look for a sand sifting goby and don't have a huge tank. Their constant search for food inside the toplayer of the bottom, will keep it clean and aerated.

They can best be kept alone unless you can find a mated pair, which will be even more interesting to watch. They probably won't find enough food in the bottom just by sifting through the sand so you need to supplement them with small crustaceans and pellet and flake food. Keep a look at their bellies, because when they don't get enough food/nutrition, they will get slimmer fast and you need to feed them more, or more nutritional food.

This fish is Tank Bred and will adapt to your aquarium easier compared to a wild caught specimen!
