Yellow Prawn Watchman Goby.

  • Diet

The fish are tolerant of an omnivorous diet and don’t mind eating frozen fish products that are sold over the counter. In addition to this, they are content to consume sinking pellets as well as Mysis Shrimp, Brine Shrimp, Table Shrimp, and marine fish meals. Being bottom feeders, they can also find food in the sand they are digging through.

  • Tank Requirements 

For the fish’s health, this goby needs a lovely saltwater aquarium just like any other marine fish.

Lawnmower Blenny prefers water that is between 72 and 78 degrees Fahrenheit in temperature. Make sure the fresh water is the same temperature as the old when you change the tank water. Although Lawnmower Blenny is not very sensitive to temperature variations, you should strive to keep them at a constant.

8.1 to 8.4 is the ideal pH range for Lawnmower Blennies water. They are quite picky about pH and salinity fluctuations. A Lawnmower Blenny aquarium should have water with a hardness of 8 to 12 dKH. Lawnmower Blennies require a steady salinity between 1.020 and 1.025 because they are saltwater fish.

  • Cleaning Procedure

The substrate, as well as the tank and other components, should all be immaculate. It should always be clean enough to prevent problems like viruses and bacteria from being present in the water as a result of low quality. To properly clean the entire tank, only replace a portion of the water.

  • Tank mates

Other saltwater fish that possess characteristics that are comparable to those of the Yellow Watchman Goby can coexist with it.
