Very special thanks for the first photo of Tryssogobius sarah to Dr. Gerry R. Allen, he has taken this photo at Flores, Indonesia
This fairy goby with blue eyes was called after Sarah Crow, a young marine biologist.
The goby is reef-associated and occurs in regions with exposed to relatively strong currents in a depth range of 40 to 75 meters.
Classification: Biota > Animalia (Kingdom) > Chordata (Phylum) > Vertebrata (Subphylum) > Gnathostomata (Superclass) > Pisces (Superclass) > Actinopteri (Class) > Perciformes (Order) > Gobioidei (Suborder) > Gobiidae (Family) > Gobiinae (Subfamily) > Tryssogobius (Genus) > Tryssogobius sarah (Species)
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!
