Black Toraja Gobies, Mugilogobius sarasinorum, have been around a few years. They're from one particular lake, Lake Poso, on the island of Sulawesi, and appear to be completely freshwater fish. Water chemistry in that lake tends towards soft while the pH is slightly above (not below) neutral. Basic care isn't especially difficult, and they adapt to slightly soft and slightly alkaline water conditions without problems. There is the usual goby problem of diet though -- dried foods are unlikely to be consumed, at least initially, so fresh, wet-frozen or live foods will need to be used instead. Do note that this species is a fish-eating predator, so choose tankmates with care. I wrote a bit about them for an article on freshwater gobies over on the TFF site, here:
