🏰 Empire Gudgeon Goby – Regal Beauty with Vibrant Coloration!

The Empire Gudgeon Goby (Hypseleotris compressa) is a stunning freshwater goby species known for its intense red, orange, and blue hues—especially in males during breeding season. Native to Australia and New Guinea, this eye-catching fish brings both elegance and attitude to any aquarium. 🐟🌈

The Empire Gudgeon is peaceful but can be semi-territorial, making it best suited for larger tanks with ample hiding spots and gentle tankmates. They do exceptionally well in planted aquariums and thrive in slightly brackish or freshwater environments. Their vibrant color change as they mature makes them a favorite for aquarists seeking a show-stopping centerpiece fish.
