into its surroundings has the best chance of staying undiscovered. Being small, gobies can also disappear from the scene rapidly, as they will fit into any hole or crevice—or even the outlet of a sponge, the inlet of a giant clam, or the digestive cavity of a sea cucumber. Moreover, the reaction times of smaller fishes can be astonishing, as they must be constantly vigilant to escape being picked off by trolling predators. But being small also has its drawbacks, as the pygmy gobies clearly show: their life span is sometimes very short. Surgeonfishes live on average for 20 years, but many pygmy gobies live for only three to five. Some of the tiniest gobies have been found to live, reproduce, and die within 60 days. And that makes every day of their lives particularly valuable—all the more reason for us to keep them carefully and lovingly in the aquarium. Tiger Goby, Elacatinus macrodon 54 CORAL
