breeding Rhinogobius wui

Obtain a adult pair (M/F), place them in a tank with many flat rocks or pieces of slate laid on a sand substrate and cool water (around 20c) and feed small live foods for a few weeks to bring them into spawning condition. when the female is ripe and the male has constucted a burrow/cave under the rock/slate start to do small (5%) daily water changes for a week, at the end of the week the female should have lead around 10 large eggs on the roof of the cave which the male will guard till the hatch, on hatching the parents should be removed or they will eat the fry.
 
just wondering what type of small live foods you were referring to CFC...
would it be like live brine shimp, ghost shrimp, or guppies? (or all)
i kinda wanted to breed these guys also... :D
 
I would use daphnia, bloodworms and glass worms. The gobies are too small to manage guppies and ghost shrimp and i do not recomend feeding brine shrimp to FW fish due to their high salt content.
