🌿 Behavior & Care:
Bumblebee Gobies are small but feisty! Males often display bright golden bands and defend their territories, especially during feeding or breeding. Keep them in groups of 4–6 in a well-decorated tank with plenty of caves, shells, or driftwood for hiding.
💧 Tank Setup Tip:
They prefer slightly brackish water (add marine salt 1–2 tsp per gallon) and gentle filtration. Perfect companions include peaceful fish tolerant of mild salinity, such as mollies or glassfish.
