looks like female Stiphodon sp. possibly S. elegans.
Scooped this goby from a tank of SAE in C328.
One and only one in the whole tank. Aunty don't even know that she have this in her tank. Anyone can ID?
Another picture to compare the size with.

Could it be a juvenile one? The lines looked weaker than images from the net.
I think only female show this coloration.

I see, so this is the female of the green/red goby we commonly see in the shop?

I think is female of the red goby. the link to the female of the blue/green neon goby S. atropurpureus has broke.

sorry off topic. I'm wondering what do they eat anyway?
Stiphodon and Sicyopterus sp. are algae eaters.
