General information

The Cave Transparent Goby is a native of the reefs in the Maldives and Fiji. They are often found in and about both hard and soft corals. This fish gets its name from its transparent appearance. The body of the fish is also covered in orange spots. It will rarely become aggressive towards other fish but will fight with its own kind in a smaller aquarium.

They typically build a cave under a rock, where they lay their eggs upon the ceiling of the cave.
