Salem Clemens5 days ago
Just a few days ago, De Jong Marinelife announced that they had successfully bred Gobiodon okinawae (yellow clown goby). This species is ideal for small marine aquariums and adds a colorful pop of personality to any tank (just keep them away from Acropora).
I spoke with De Jong directly, and they provided the following details.
“The coral-dwelling Gobiodon okinawae, commonly known as the Okinawa goby, is a cherished species in nano reef aquariums, captivating hobbyists with its vibrant yellow coloration and unique perching behavior. This species was a key focus of our larval project, led by our senior larval culture specialist, Jonathan Simon. Thanks to Jonathan’s dedication and, of course, the hard work of our entire hatchery team, this iconic species has been successfully aquacultured at De Jong Aquaculture in the Netherlands—marking another significant step toward sustainable marine aquarium fish breeding.
