Info
(Jordan & Seale, 1906)
Special thanks for the foto to Ole Johann Brett, Norway.
Very small goby, lives on soft corals.
Synonyms:
Pleurosicya timidus (Smith, 1959)
Pleurosicyops timidus Smith, 1959
Rhinogobius muscarum Jordan & Seale, 1906
Jumping guard
A jumping guard prevents (nocturnal) fish from jumping out.
Wrasses, blennies, hawkfishs and gobies jump out of an unprotected tank in fright if their night rest is disturbed, unfortunately these jumpers are found dried up in the morning on carpets, glass edges or later behind the tank.

A small night light also helps, as it provides the fish with a means of orientation in the dark!
