Dwarfs - June 10, 2005 02:16 AM (GMT)
I got 3
Mogurnda mogurnda gudgeons :P (May be
M. clivicola)
The smallest is 1.5", biggest is 2.5 :D
I got the biggest and smallest today, and the medium one yesterday, and they are already eating and staring at me in true mogurnda fashion :wub:
This is the one I got yesterday (My dad took these pics)



I'll try to get pics of all three soon, I'm glad my dad found them ($15 each this time, instead of the usual $30 a piece) jay

Before i even looked at the thread i thought "bet its some kind of goby" and hell i was right.
No they aren't really community fish per se, only to be kept with fish bigger than themselves.
Congrats on the gobies, i found some candy stripes in my local store (still in qurantine) and im in two minds wheteher to get them or not

Yep, I agree with oddball, and he seems to know my taste in fish very well :lol:
I keep my mogurnda clivicola with
Senegal bichirs (2)
A peacock eel
Syno eupterus (4)
A peckoltia pleco
Ctenopoma acutirostre (3)
African butterfly fish (3)
Seeing as my eel is grey, and all of the other fish are brown, my mogurndas will look awesome in there, all 4 of them :D
My dad has kept fish for just over 30 years, and has had his current tank since 1989 (Before I was born), so, yeah, you could call him a fish person :P
Oddball, get the candy stripes, read my profile on them, and get them, they are 4" of pure awesome gobyness that will not dissapoint you. :D

My first fish ever when I was about 10.
VERY easy to breed.
Dwarfs - June 12, 2005 02:02 AM (GMT)
Thanks, I think I'll call them Los Molitos :lol:
I hope they breed, these fish are the best :wub:

These gobies are freaking crazy, I've had them for less than a week in a 10g quarantine tank, and the 2 bigger ones layed eggs :huh: You guys without mogurndas don't know what your missing :P
I hope the camera has batteries :unsure:
BTW steve, thanks for mentioning that they are VERY EASY TO BREED :lol:

Good to hear man.
Same thing happend with me. I had 3 in a 2 footer and they bred constantly. Every 2nd week!
I was only 10 at the time so I had no idea what to do :laugh:

Hmm, this is an old thread, the pair died and the eggs never made it :rip:
