I've seen this fish but it was labeled as a wasp fish and I can't find any scientific name on them or any requirements like Sg and tank size etc

So here's a pic

It's the Butterfly-Goby Waspfish, Neovespicula depressifrons. It can do well in a brackish to marine aquarium, SG 1.005 upwards when young, and ideally around SG 1.010. Not delicate, but is a finicky feeder. Initially at least you will need to offer river shrimps, earthworms and so on; once settled, it will eat bloodworms and all the usual meaty foods.

Maximum length is about 8-10 cm, so you'd probably want at least 100 litres for this chap.

Could be kept alongside Sailfin Mollies for example, and the latter would turn flake into live food! :sly:

Cheers, Neale
