[matchstickman47]

ive already asked about bumble bee goby ... that turn out badly

 

[lilacamy931]

hmmmmm....really not sure, I thought bumblebees were well brackish??

i post alot on DPs as well

 

[matchstickman47]

oh just realised they are brackish!

 

[matchstickman47]

oooooo just found something interesting




Gobies are excellent to watch. Their frequent border disputes and arguments over the best pot are hilarious. They make a great addition to any brackish setup. The true bumblebee goby will also be accepted into a community setup.

this means they are tolerant of freashwater?

well not the golden banded one.

Oto's will be fine with them. And as far as I have read, there is a true one, brackish, and a not so true one, fresh.

You can keep bumbleebee gobys in fresh water, however they wont thrive nor last as long as they would in brackish.
The only thing you can keep with DP's are ottos IMO.

well

ottos, shrimp, corys but it depends on the puffer =/

you can put BBG's in FW but they wont live as long =[

 

[matchstickman47]

how long out of curiosity... like 10 minute of like a few years

 

[lordofthesea]

well, you could put a coldwater goldfish into a tropical brackish tank and it would live - but would that mean it would be happy? do you really want to put a fish in with your puffer when it wouldn't live very long, may be bullied and would suffer?

I would stick to otocinclus if you must have a tank mate in with a dp. Cories can't move fast enough to get out of their way and imho are sitting targets for being tasted all the time.
