Common name: Whitecap Goby

The genus Lotilia includes the Whitecap Goby, a small and peaceful fish that is well-suited for nano and pico reef aquariums. They are known for their symbiotic relationship with pistol shrimp, which they share burrows with for protection. The Whitecap Goby has a striking white cap on its head, which contrasts with its otherwise translucent body. They are relatively easy to care for but do require a well-established tank with plenty of live rock for hiding and hunting small invertebrates.
