The Scissortail Dartfish, also known as the Scissortail Goby, is a beautiful but shy species that displays an array of greens, blues, yellows, and reds that blend smoothly throughout its body and fins.
Care
The Scissortail Dartfish is an easy to keep species that grows to a size of 5.5". They're not active swimmers, and can usually be seen hovering in and around their favorite bolt holes, allowing them to be kept in aquariums as small as 30 gallons. They're a peaceful and reef safe species, though they shouldn't be kept with members of their own kind. It's important to provide them plenty of rock to hide in, as well as a well fitted mesh lid to keep them from jumping out of the tank.
Diet
Scissortail Dartfish aren't picky eaters, and should readily accept most frozen or prepared foods.
