Eyebar Goby

Found singly or in loose schools, close to their burrows, over silty bottoms with small amounts of algae and seagrass cover, in coastal bays and estuaries.

These Gobies feed by taking a mouthful of sand that is filtered through the gills for tiny creatures.
They make large homes on sandy areas below rocks, with a small entrance that is covered over at night, when predators are near these Gobies dive into the sand and swim through the sand to escape danger.
