Sixspot Goby

Found in pairs or small schools, close to their burrows under rocks, sifting through sand with their mouths looking for food, over silty, sandy bays and lagoons.

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.
