| − | + | |tank_compatibility=:Best kept in a brackish species tank, one to a tank, or possibly with top-dwelling peaceful brackish fish. May be bullied by more aggressive bottom dwellers, or bother peaceful ones. Should not pose a threat to smaller fish as long as its kept well fed. | |

Multiples may be kept together in large aquariums. Some territorial fighting will occur but the fighting non-damaging. | Multiples may be kept together in large aquariums. Some territorial fighting will occur but the fighting non-damaging. | ||
| − | + | |diet=:Fry are omnivores and will eat algae-based flake food, freeze-dried [[bloodworm]]s, [[tubifex]], [[brine shrimp]], and flakes. Adults prefer frozen or live food with occasional vegetarian supplements. | |
| − | + | |feeding_regime=:These fish are filter feeders, so it is not uncommon to see one eat a chunk of sand, and then spit the sand through the gills, swallowing any food that may have been in the sand. | |
| − | + | |environment_specifics=:Although Brackish by nature, many people report that the fish can slowly be acclimated to marine and freshwater, they do best with at least 10% to 50% marine strength salt in their water. They do very poorly in long-term freshwater habitats. They also require a cave or rock formation to call their own and a soft sand substrate. They can be sensitive to water temperature changes which can make them more susceptible to disease. | |

If well fed, should not bother smaller fish. The Dragon Goby should only be kept with peaceful fish as has poor eyesight and may be bullied by more boisterous fish. |
| − | + | |identification=:An unusual and almost prehistoric looking fish. It is a very elongate eel-like fish with a large mouth and small eyes. It is iridescent silver in colour with purple-blue hues and some dark vertical bars visible. The dorsal fin is long and translucent with thick spines. | |
