Stiphodon Goby Care Guide!

Hey Guys, I hope you are all doing well today! In today's video, I will be giving you all my full Stiphodon Goby Care Guide! I have kept these gobies for many years now and I have learnt a lot about keeping these colourful gobies. If you are a beginner and never kept Stiphodon gobies before I hope this video will have some useful information for you.
Stiphodon is a genus of freshwater gobies. They inhabit swift, clear streams close to the sea and are found in large parts of Asia and Oceania. Many of the 36 currently recognized species have extremely restricted distributions on single islands or even single streams.

nice video mate 👌

[@KrishsAquariums]

Thank you!

[@sergiogg25]

Great video! I've also been keeping stiphodons for 5 years and I love them. I agree with all your recommendations. Additionally, I keep an external water recipient with some river stones and strong light to create algae in the rocks and eventually transfer them into the main display tank.

[@KrishsAquariums]

Thank you! They are such a great fish to keep! That’s a great idea I do the same too, I forgot to mention it in the video! Great tip!

[@SquisheeDog]

They are so cute and cool to watch. Thank you for the advice. My local pet store had a shipment of them for the first time, no idea if they'll get more, so I grabbed the last of them. They've been great in my community tank so far.

[@KrishsAquariums]

Thank you for watching! I hope they are going well in your aquarium!

[@moraisins]

So helpful and concise! Great vid! I’m been researching and preparing a tank for stiphodons, really excited! The chilli rasboras are okay with the wave maker/fast flow? Trying to find some nano fish dither ideas - was thinking of kubotai rasbora could maybe work? Love the information! Is there any way the speed of the talking can be slowed down a touch? I sometimes miss some of the words, but still find this great and informative. Thank you!! 🙏

[@KrishsAquariums]

Thank you so much! This means a lot! I haven’t got chillis in this tank, but I’d imagine they wouldn’t appreciate the wave maker, they are tiny fish! Zebra Rasboras or white cloud minnows would be good! There should be an option to slow the video to x0.50 on the settings part of the video, many apologies for that!

[@IMaqua]

I love Stiphodons. I will be adding soon few to my Hillstream aquarium.

[@KrishsAquariums]

Amazing I glad to hear that! They are cool fish to keep!

[@australianbiotopes4563]

Great video! unfortunately although we have them here in the wild we can't keep them as they are heavily protected, I still love to watch the videos from people overseas keeping them, Thanks for sharing, new subscriber 🙂

[@KrishsAquariums]

Thank you! Oh no that’s a shame! But you are lucky to have them on your door stop! Have you seen them in the wild? Thank you for subscribing!

[@australianbiotopes4563]

@@KrishsAquariums I have seen them but haven't filmed them, I've only seen them in winter when the males don't have their breeding colours but unfortunately, I hope to film them in the wild one day if I get up that way in the warmer part of the year.

[@KrishsAquariums]

I would love to see that footage if you get a chance to record it! What are there numbers like? Are they common to find?

[@australianbiotopes4563]

@@KrishsAquariums I saw them, didn't film them though, I was in a bit of a rush to get as much as I could from the area and they weren't coloured up and I didn't want to spend to much time with them, they are very fast.

[@jjxtwo1]

That's a wonderful tank! Great video too.

[@KrishsAquariums]

Thank you very much!

[@michelleroy2444]

Will I still need to treat them for parasites even when they come from a store who claim they don’t have diseases

[@KrishsAquariums]

I would still recommend it due to them being 100% wild caught!

[@legionaquatics]

Hey I have a blue neon stiphodon and I was wondering why it doesn’t have the nice blue I see on other ones? I plan on getting some more stiphodons cause I love the behaviour.

[@KrishsAquariums]

Sometimes they maybe young and take a while to mature. It could be the water parameters too, they like soft water. Having females help bring out some natural breeding behaviour too!

[@legionaquatics]

@@KrishsAquariums I just looked it up and I think I just have a female.

[@KrishsAquariums]

Oh wow that’s cool! It’s hard to find females!

[@legionaquatics]

@@KrishsAquariums yeah one store near me had so many females and another store had only males.

[@KrishsAquariums]

That’s actually so lucky, I’m jealous!

Is it possible to keep a smaller goby species in a 5gal

[@KrishsAquariums]

3 Max!

@@KrishsAquariums 3 gallon? Huh

[@LaunaSimpson-kr4fo]

Yes you can but no more than three small goby ​@theon1y183

I think one at the max

3 gallon is abit too small

My dude, I'm sure you have so many interesting things to say. But, you're mumbling. I can't hear you.

I am so sorry, I am working on this for future videos!
