Diet

Carnivorous. Peacock Gobies primarily feed on small live and frozen foods like bloodworms, brine shrimp, and microorganisms.

Community Compatibility

Peacock Gobies can be kept in peaceful community tanks with other small, non-aggressive fish that share similar water parameters. Avoid keeping them with large or aggressive species.

Good to Know

Peacock Gobies are relatively easy to care for but can be sensitive to water quality changes. Maintain stable water conditions and provide a well-cycled tank. They are jumpers, so ensure the tank has a tightly fitting lid.

Gender Differences

Males are often more colorful and display more intense coloration, especially during breeding.
