More about Black barred convict goby

The Black barred convict goby (Priolepis nocturna) is a small marine fish characterized by its yellowish body covered with black vertical bars. Originating from the Indo-Pacific region, it typically inhabits rocky and coral reef environments. Its striking appearance features a slender body, with the black bars providing effective camouflage among the reefs. Despite its attractive appearance, it is not particularly well-known or widespread in the aquarium hobby, primarily due to its elusive nature and specific care requirements.
