Red Head Goby – Elacatinus puncticulatus

Overview:
The Red Head Goby is a small, vibrant reef fish with a bright red head contrasting its slender, gray-blue body, often adorned with subtle white spots along its length. Part of the cleaner goby group, it exhibits fascinating behaviors such as picking parasites from larger fish in the wild. Its compact size and striking coloration make it an attractive addition to nano and reef aquariums.

Origin:
Native to the Eastern Pacific, particularly along the coasts of Central America and northern South America, inhabiting coral reefs and rocky crevices.

Feeding:
Omnivorous – in captivity, it feeds on small meaty foods like brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, finely chopped seafood, and high-quality micro-pellets. Can also benefit from occasional algae supplementation.

Tank Mates:
Peaceful and reef-safe, ideal for community and reef tanks. It can coexist with other small, non-aggressive fish. Avoid housing with aggressive species that may outcompete it for food.

Aggression:
Low. Non-territorial and gentle, though may show minor site fidelity to a preferred rock or crevice.

Experience Level:
Beginner to Intermediate. Hardy and easy to care for in well-established aquariums with stable water parameters.

Water Parameters:

  • Temperature: 74–79°F (23–26°C)
  • pH: 8.1–8.4
  • Salinity: 1.020–1.025
  • Minimum Tank Size: 20 gallons

The Red Head Goby (Elacatinus puncticulatus) is a colorful, peaceful, and active cleaner-type goby that adds both visual interest and beneficial cleaning behavior to small and large reef setups alike.

Fun for my Yorkipoo
Size: Medium
My Yorkipoo loves this. Keeps her busy for at least 15-30 minutes. UPDATE - months later and she still loves it! I just have to say out of all the busy toys, this one is the best! It’s reasonably priced and you and your dog will be so glad you did!

My dogs' favorite toy--entertains longer than anything else!
Size: Medium
This toy keeps my dogs entertained for 15 minutes or more. They love figuring out how to get out the treats. Even though they get to play with them a few times a week, they keep getting excited when their pinecones come out! Highly recommend!
