A delightful addition to tranquil reef aquariums.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Tangaroa Shrimpgoby (*Ctenogobiops tangaroai*) displays a semi-translucent body adorned with delicate orange, white, and sometimes bluish or pink spots. Its most striking feature is its elongated first dorsal spine, often brownish, resembling a pennant. These peaceful gobies are renowned for forming a symbiotic bond with alpheid shrimp, sharing a burrow dug and maintained by their shrimp partner. You&#8217;ll often see them diligently sifting sand for food, adding dynamic interest to your substrate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Care Level<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Tangaroa Shrimpgoby is considered a moderate care level species, suitable for aquarists with some marine experience. It is very peaceful and compatible with other non-aggressive tank mates and is reef-safe. They can be housed in groups, ideally introduced simultaneously, but ensure ample space to prevent territorial squabbles among conspecifics.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tank Essentials<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A minimum tank size of 40 litres is recommended for the Tangaroa Shrimpgoby, providing enough space for its burrowing activities and a symbiotic shrimp, if desired. A deep sand bed is crucial to support their natural behavior. Maintain stable marine salinity, a pH range of 8.0-8.4, and a temperature of 25-29\u00b0C.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Diet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As carnivores, Tangaroa Shrimpgobies thrive on a diet rich in meaty foods. Offer high-quality mysis shrimp, vitamin-enriched brine shrimp, and finely chopped seafood. They should be fed at least once daily.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Buy From Us<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When you buy Tangaroa Shrimpgoby online from Corais de Vidro, you&#8217;re choosing healthy aquarium fish responsibly sourced and humanely shipped.
