Keywords: Fish brackish mud skipper

This is my atlanic mudskipper. I have 2, a male and a female. They live in a 30 gallon brackish aquarium with some other species of goby. I got them cheap where i work and they are superb. They will jump on my hand as soon as i put food on it. Here they are eating flake, the dont usually eat this. Usually they would be eating crickets, mealworm, bloodworm and molly fry.

There really not that hard to care for at all. I bought him through my work, i work in an aquarium and i got a pair for £4 (i'm live in south england). You really need a brackish set up with only about half the tank full up. I have them in a 30 inch aquarium. Try and get hold of one of those vivarium misters, they keep the air in the top of the tank perfectly humid. They mostly eat crickets and worms, how ever they will occasionally eat flake of my hand. They are very tame and will willingly swim onto my hand as soon as a reach into the tank. they will get to around 6 inches. the best goby in the world! do ask if u have any queries. cheers, jimmy

Can I ask what shop they're from? I'm in Scotland but I'd love to have some of these guys! Is that a youngster or an adult? Can you handle them much? I really like my gobies and oddballs. I'm on lookout for some Mogurnda species if I can get them. Fell free to email me - nigelsbestfriend@aol.com
