The Byno Goby (Amblygobius bynoensis) is a peaceful species that is reef-safe, admired for its subtle cream-to-brown coloration accented with horizontal striping, hardy nature, and active sand-sifting behavior that helps keep substrates clean. This goby is a practical and attractive addition to reef systems.
Males typically grow slightly larger, may develop more vibrant striping, and sometimes display territorial or courtship behaviors, while females and juveniles remain smaller with less distinct markings.
They reach about 4–5 inches in length and should be housed in aquariums of at least 30 gallons. Provide a fine sandbed for burrowing and sifting, live rock for hiding spots and structure, and open swimming space, along with a secure lid since gobies are known to jump when startled.
Maintain stable water parameters with salinity around 1.020–1.025, temperature between 72–79°F, and pH between 8.1–8.4.
Their diet should consist of mysis shrimp, enriched brine shrimp, copepods, finely chopped meaty foods, algae-based foods, and high-quality sinking pellets. As natural sand-sifters, they often consume microfauna and detritus from the substrate, but supplemental feedings are important for long-term health.
With proper care, the Byno Goby makes a standout addition to reef aquariums, offering both useful sand-cleaning behavior and peaceful compatibility with other reef inhabitants.
