I have had a male Knight Goby in my brackish tank for 3 months or so now. About a month ago, i got two females for him.
After rescaping the tank, ive ditched the ocean rock and added loadsa slate, as i like to be able to design caves etc. One DIY thing i did was to buy a t-piece like thing for the pond, so its like 2 inch in diameter. I stuck on pieces of slate to it, so you wouldnt think its really a pipe tunnel thing.
Anyway, where a piece of slate is slanted (not stuck on, so you can imagine theres space for a fish to swim between the slate and the pipe) ive noticed my male sorta 'hovering' in there for the past days. ANyways, ive spotted eggs in there! Loads of them! He always comes out and gets rid of the others!
So yeah, ive got eggs off of a fish that i wasnt even planning to breed lol! The only thing is ive got a GSP and 2 Columbian Cat Sharks in there, so they wont be around for long lol!
The male has proper colured up, even more! His caudal fin is a deep bronze colour and everything, lovely fish!
Anyways, there's not alot on the net about them breeding, so i cant help in anyway. Anyone done it before? Cheers

Thats awesome. I wish I could Have something other than live breeders have babies in one of my tanks.

Re: Knight Gobies Have Spawned
Mine laid lots of eggs but never saw any fry. How big is the tank? You can try moving the slate to another tank with a good flow going over them.
