Well I got my job at my (not so) LFS ad today was my first day. We have a beautiful sleep goby in right now but unfortunatly it was dropped off to us from an unknown customer. Well, the species exactly is Moresby Gudgeon according to our fish bible (lol). I checked the species on fishbase but no match. The closest I found was Mogurnda oligolepis, which looks exactly what we have so I believe I have found an accurate species ID. However there seems to be no information out there on the web so I was wondering if anybody has some information on them. They're an Australlian species and apparently they are endangered, which brings to question how the gent who brought us the fish obtained it.
Basically I was wondering what do they eat? I found that they prefer low to no current and are found near the bottom of the river beds near dead wood and roots. However I don't know what they eat. Apparently we're feeding it frozen bloodworms, and feeder guppies. It's eaten the bloodworms, but I've never seen it eat the feeders.
My work also want's to get rid of it, and if it doesn't eat small fish I'd love to have it as the centre piece of my 55gallon community.
