Eviota fluctiphila, a new dwarfgoby from the western Pacific Ocean
Surge Dwarfgoby
A new species of dwarfgoby, Eviota fluctiphila,n. sp., is described from West Papua in the western Pacific Ocean. It has a complete cephalic sensory-canal pore system (pattern 1), dorsal/anal-fin formula of usually 8/8, some pectoral-fin rays branched, the fifth pelvic-fin ray absent, the first dorsal fin not filamentous, no occipital or dark marks on the nape, the pectoral-fin base peppered with scattered melanophores, the first dorsal fin dark crossed by a pale band, two dark postanal spots above the anal-fin base, a dark internal blotch over the preural centrum on and above the midline, and a pear-shaped male urogenital papilla. Eviota fluctiphila occurs in shallow (0.2–2 m), high-energy reef habitats.

Jumping guard
A jumping guard prevents (nocturnal) fish from jumping out.
Wrasses, blennies, hawkfishs and gobies jump out of an unprotected tank in fright if their night rest is disturbed, unfortunately these jumpers are found dried up in the morning on carpets, glass edges or later behind the tank.

A small night light also helps, as it provides the fish with a means of orientation in the dark!
