Eviota algida Greenfield & Algida, 2014
Upwelling Dwarfgoby
Collected only from Gamat Bay, Nusa Penida Island, Bali, Indonesia, but also photographed
approximately 950 km to the east at Beangabang Bay, Pantar, Indonesia. Likely distributed along the entire Lesser
Sunda Island chain in reef habitats exposed to cold-water upwelling along the eastern Indian Ocean coastlines.

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!
