Lotilia graciliosa, commonly known as the Whitecap Goby, is a captivating little commensal fish that rarely graces the aquarium trade. Its name is fitting, as it boasts a distinctive white cap that stretches from its upper lip to the dorsal fin. This unique feature sets it apart and makes it a sought-after gem for goby enthusiasts. Imagine a delicate fish adorned with a snowy crown – truly a sight to behold!
While pricing and availability have improved slightly since then, encountering a Whitecap Goby remains akin to discovering a hidden treasure in the hobbyist world.
If you’re fortunate enough to spot one, consider it a privilege – this little fish is like finding the “Holy Grail” for goby lovers. Its elegance and scarcity make it a prized addition to any nano tank or reef setup.
