yellow brotula

[e.muehlbauer]

Saw a fascinating fish at H20 yesterday...a yellow brotula....about 4-5" long, moves like a cross between an eel and a knifefish....I'm not about to buy anything I know nothing about, but I cannot find much info. I know about the Brotulids, didn't know any were small and pretty. All I can find out about this is that it stays small, its tropical, and that its probably a livebearer....anybody else know anything about it? Thanks, Eric

It's a type of Gobies. They're pretty harmless the thing is you'll never see the fish as it will hide in your rocks and never come out. On the positive side they're very hardy and usually last for quite a long time.
