Descripción de la especie
Gobiidae species Acanthogobius flavimanus comes from coasts of China, Korea & Japan. A benthic percher that spends its days darting between rock, glass and cave — structure decides its temperament. It lives on the bottom. Adults reach 22.5–33 cm. A bonded pair claims one cave; keep others elsewhere. Caves, stable pairs and clean sand keep this fish far calmer than open, bare tanks ever will. Maintain 18–26 °C at pH 6.5–7.5. A solid choice for a well-planned community tank.
