Goby for my 2.5G Pico

[lukestimp]

Wanted to get some suggestions on which Goby to get for my new 2.5 Pico.

I feel in love with the Yasha's at Aquarium Outfitters this weekend, but I'm just not sure if a 2.5 is enough for him. The pico is only going to have a Pistol shrimp and a High fin Goby of some sort but i can't decided which one to go with. Help me out..

My personal opinion is that only Trimma and Gobiodon species the are appropriate fish for a pico. There are some Pico keepers that don't think any fish are appropriate.

My son just put a little black clown goby in his pico.

I think Chris up at Einsteins had one of those flaming prawn gobies. It was cool, but I couldn't get a very good look at it. It seemed to stay in the rockwork.

Nice fish, but too expensive. There's not enough info on them for me to feel comfortable shelling out that much cash.

I googled it when I saw how cool it looked -- the reviews said that it doesn't pair up with shrimp and will stay hidden away 99% of the time. Otherwise the things look really beautiful.

I would think you could go with a neon goby. They shoud do fine as they only get to 1.5-2 inches.
But my suggetion as Loren said would be a Gobiodon
