The Green Silk Gudgeon Dartfish, often referred to as the Green Gudgeon Goby originates from the reefs of Maldives. They sport an elongated body that is an iridescent green color and has blue marks on the face, head, and gill plates. They are great fish for a fish-only and reef aquarium. It is best to keep it in 30 gallon or bigger aquarium that is filled with loose coral rubble. It requires plenty of space for swimming with a bottom that is sand for burrowing. It might try to leap from the aquarium or any other opening that is small which is why a tightly-fitting lid is necessary. It is rare for it to become aggressive with other fish. It feeds primarily on prey floating within the column of water. However, it will also pick up food off the substrate too. This Green Silk Gudgeon Dartfish feeds on a diet consisting of mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, table shrimp, as well as frozen carnivore food preparations. It is recommended to feed it at a minimum of three times per day. Approximate Purchase Size: Small: 1"-2-1/4; Medium: 2-1/4" to 3-1/2"; Large: 3-1/2" to 4-1/2"

Helpful Questions From Clients
Frequently Asked Questions
Is hiring a professional necessary to set up a saltwater aquarium?

As a general rule, a larger custom aquarium might require installation by a professional. However, a kit from our online fish store is relatively affordable and beginner friendly. That means you should have no problem setting it up yourself.

Which saltwater aquarium fish should you choose when starting out?

Consider a yellow tang fish. This popular saltwater aquarium fish does a great job of coexisting with other types of fish you’ll find in our online fish store.

How does a saltwater aquarium differ from a freshwater one?

Saltwater aquariums require a bit more maintenance and monitoring than freshwater tanks. Different fish require different levels of salinity, pH tolerances, and temperature requirements. They also require specialized pumps, filters, and other equipment that can handle salt. We can guide you through everything you need to know to set up a healthy, thriving reef tank.

Do fish in a saltwater aquarium swim in a school?

That depends on the species. However, if it’s a fish that swims in a school in the wild, they’ll do the same in an aquarium. Some fish that swim in schools include the green and blue chromis, cardinalfish, and dartfish, for example. When ordering from an online fish store, make sure you do your research on how specific fish species behave to ensure they’ll school (or at least coexist) with your current fish.

Is the effort required to maintain a saltwater aquarium worth it?

Yes! Many aquarists dream of owning thriving saltwater aquariums. You have a tiny piece of the ocean in your home, featuring magical and exotic fish that can only survive in saltwater.
