Description
The Ringeye Pygmygoby is a tiny, vibrant red goby known for its distinctive red-ringed eyes. This peaceful and shy species is an excellent addition to established nano reef aquariums, where it appreciates plenty of rockwork for hiding and perching. It primarily feeds on zooplankton in the water column.
