Info
Very special thanks for the first photos of Salarias sexfilum to Dr. Michael P. Hammer, Australia.
Nesogobius tigrinus lives endemic to Kangaroo Island, South Australia and inhabits intertidal / subtidal areas in sheltered bays in north-east Kangaroo Island (northern Shoal Bay, Western Cove and upper American River).
Nesogobius tigrinus was discovered during the Kangaroo Island collecting expedition, 2008.
Jumping guard
A jumping guard prevents (nocturnal) fish from jumping out.
Wrasses, blennies, hawkfishs and gobies jump out of an unprotected tank in fright if their night rest is disturbed, unfortunately these jumpers are found dried up in the morning on carpets, glass edges or later behind the tank.

A small night light also helps, as it provides the fish with a means of orientation in the dark!
