The Purple Firefish Goby, Nemateleotris decora, also known as the Decorated Firefish, exhibits a beautiful lavender/white body with bright red caudal and dorsal fins. It also features an elongated first dorsal spine that sticks up from its back. The Purple Firefish should be kept in a tank with plenty of a live rock, a sandy substrate, and a tightly-sealed lid to prevent escapes. They can be kept in pairs and or solitary. The Purple Firefish will eat a carnivorous diet of mainly frozen or live brine or mysis shrimp. This is a gorgeous fish that will thrive in any reef tank if housed with peaceful tank mates. 

Love this goby!! Alive and doing well. Inquisitive and lovely colorations on its body. Highly recommend.
