Yellow Goatfish

The Yellow Goatfish is a solid golden-yellow colour from head to tail. If you’re looking for the unexpected, consider the Yellow Goatfish. These hardy characters introduce energetic activity to the aquarium bottom as they actively patrol the sand bed to satisfy their appetites, making them a unique addition to your aquarium. An established aquarium with large areas to swim, and rockwork with a few hiding places is recommended.

The young Yellow Goatfish may sift the sandy bottom of the aquarium in search of invertebrates to eat so a moderate substrate layer is a must. The older Yellow Goatfish may pick at small crustaceans, fish, and worms but will leave corals alone. Goatfish prefer to be housed with less aggressive tank mates. The diet should consist of a variety of meaty foods. Goatfish have a high metabolism and should be fed often during the day.
