The Bumblebee Goby is a small fish with a wide range of habitats. It is found in both freshwater and brackish areas and can adapt to a wide range in-between with a wide range of temperatures. The aquarium should be mature and water needs to be hard and alkaline for this species to thrive and the substrate should be sand. Add plenty of rocks, plants and caves for hiding places and enrichment. Water movement should be fairly gentle.
These fish are quite territorial with their own kind, so it's really important that they are kept in a sizeable group to spread out the aggression. Ideal tank mates include Glass Catfish and various livebearers such as guppies and platies.
Food can be offered in the form of micro pellets, flakes and fresh or frozen fish foods such as daphnia.
