Bumblebee Goby

Brachygobius doriae

Bumblebee Goby

This small bottom-dwelling goby lives in slow tropical fresh and brackish waters with cover from plants, roots, and leaf litter. It ambushes tiny crustaceans, worms, and insect larvae with quick snaps of its mouth. Adults are boldly striped yellow and black and may defend a small feeding or sheltering area from other fish.
