Bumblebee goby struggles

[LittleFishiez]

I feed my gobies frozen brine shrimp, the kind that comes in the cubes. They will occasionally not notice the brine shrimp around them, is there anything I can do to make sure they see it?

I would try the freeze-dried food in individual form(loose). Bumble Bee Gobys like to perch on plants and stalk "live" food like small fry.

Thanks! I will try that.

I think blood worms are easier to feed, IMO. If you have a current, it makes it easier as the gobies can see this bright red worm seemingly wriggling in the current. For me, I use a pair of chopsticks to stir the mixture of the cube of bloodworms and the water in a seperate cup. Then I use a fine wire mesh to 'filter' out the worms, then finally I use a chopstick to place the food in front of the goby's face, making it easy for him to see. Hope this helps.
