Notes: The Barred Dartfish does best if kept in pairs or small groups that are all added at the same time. Make sure to provide several hiding places for it to retreat. It may bury in the sand at night and when threatened. Keep a lid on your aquarium because the Barred Dartfish is likely to try to jump out.
Although the Barred Dartfish Goby will feed off of algae and zooplankton growing in the aquarium, you should supplement its diet with frozen carnivore preparations containing finely chopped marine flesh, vitamin-enriched brine shrimp, or mysid shrimp.
