Info

Very special thanks for the first photo of Tomiyamichthys smithi to Roger Stenne, Australia!
Smith's shrimpgoby Inhabits sand-mud bottoms of sheltered bays in 10-23 meters.

We recommend the trilogy "Colours of the Reefs" by Roger Stenne:

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!
