Description
The Ceram Coralgoby is a small, dark-colored marine fish often found perching on stony corals. It is generally peaceful towards most tankmates, making it suitable for reef aquariums, but can be territorial with other gobies or similar-looking fish. This species is a popular choice for nano reef tanks due to its small size and interesting behavior.
