Re: [GSAS-Member] Stiphodon sp. 'Red Neon Goby' for trade?

["Betty Goetz" <haika@drizzle.com>]

If no one has spoken for this fish, I might be interested. It's not a fish
I've ever kept. All my planted tanks are low tech and I can easily add an
outside power filter instead of my usual sponge filters for a stream fish.
Do you have any idea how large these get. I have mostly 10 g tanks or
smaller and some are currently fishless.

I have lots of an unknown Crypt (submersed) that do well in low-tech
tanks. This species is currently filling up my 29g tank at work. It's a
tall crypt that comes close to the surface of the 29g tank. It would be
good to do some thinning. The crypts are all at work (NOAA Western
Regional Center on Sand Point Way near Magnusen Park).
