Description
The Queensland Eviota is a tiny, colorful goby native to the coral reefs of the Western Pacific, particularly around Queensland, Australia. It is a micro-predator, feeding on small invertebrates and zooplankton. Due to its diminutive size, it thrives in stable nano reef environments with plenty of hiding spots.
