Luciogobius guttatus. In Japanese, a worm goby.
They are often submerged in the sand. Frozen bloodworm is their favorite.

What an awesome looking fish you've got there.

It looks like it can be a bit nippy towards other fish, is that so?

I hope it one day reaches the fishstores here in Holland.

Is this common in the aquarium trade in Japan?

I have kept this fish several times from before.
I have not seen them biting other fish.

This fish seems so unpopular in Japan because it's similar to an angleworm.

The angleworm goby which was being raised before.

I think this is a delightful fish and wish we could get fish like this here. I think he's pretty cute, because he looks like a bichir. :)
