Thanks guys

Lucky - he's nearing an inch now and is starting to show his true colours that nice yellow belly is showing,
Sorry for your losses i never knew these little ones were jumpers! better be careful then

hmm, im starting to think about making a gudgeon/goby only tank, with about 4-6 various species, (actually,mainly bumble bees(FW) and peacocks and)so do you think a 5g would be alright for about 5? or should i go with a 10g?

DD

I think a ten would be better I'd love to find some FW bumblebees

 

[Ben]

I've read where 5 gal is good for breeding a pair , but as always the bigger the better , I think 5 will be fine in a 10 gallon .

There is alot of great info on the net as well , GOOGLE is great .

1/2 , 5/8 AND 3/4 x about 2 to 3 "tubing works well for breeding , mine even bred in a 1 and 1/2 " clay flower pot .
The more places the better .
I actually learned alot about these gudgeons from CFC , when I first joined the forums , matter of fact searching peacock gudgeons on the net led me here in the first place .

I didn't think they would jump either I had my others for about 10 months no jumps ya never can tell , I think the new ones were just spooked from being in a strange place .

dont worry Lucky, the first place i went is google
but i couldnt really get a clear answer on a what a good gudgeon/goby only tank size would be,all different views,so i decided to ask here aswell, and since you guys have been keeping them more then probably anybody on here and are more experienced,i'll take your advice,some places on the net don't even have profile/info on peacocks
