Fell in love with a pair of twin spot, or signal, or crab eye gobies tonight.. <i>Signigobius biocellatus</i>. Would really really love to add them to my seagrass tank which thrives with pods.

I'm not sure I'm up for culturing copepods outside of the tank to help out the pod population for these little sand sifters. So.. I was curious to know if anyone here on RC has their twin spots eating frozen foods.. Daphnia, enriched BBS/BS, frozen mysis or Cyclopeeze instead of their favorite foraging foods.

I have no problem with them burning through the pod population in the tank but dont want to have to take them back should things thin out.

So.. anyone who has twin spots trained to frozen? Any tips on the process? (I've read it for seahorses so I know the basic idea at least.)

And.. also curious.. has anyone had them breed?

Thanks everyone!

They feed on really small froozen brine, or the smallest pellest you can get.
