Griessingeri Spikefin Goby (Discordipinna griessingeri)
Acquire the ultimate crown jewel for your high-end nano reef or desktop aquarium. The Griessingeri Goby—often called the Flaming Prawn Goby—is a spectacular, highly sought-after rarity that packs an unbelievable amount of detail into a tiny footprint. Sporting a white body splashed with dramatic reddish-brown spots, intense orange-and-black fins, and a magnificent, oversized sail-like dorsal fin that it constantly flags up and down, this fish moves with a hypnotic, majestic swagger. 
Because of their minuscule adult size, they are easily lost in giant displays, making them the absolute premier centerpiece fish for dedicated nano reefs, macroalgae tanks, or specialized desktop systems.

Key Features & Tank Requirements
💎 Elite Rarity & Visual Display
Features a breathtaking, high-contrast coloration that mimics a tiny, glowing ember on the sandbed. Their habit of continuously "fanning" and flashing their oversized dorsal spike makes them a mesmerizing, interactive treasure to spot. 
🦐 True Miniature Nano Icon
Maxing out at just one single inch in length, this species will be completely overwhelmed, outcompeted, or accidentally eaten in a standard large community aquarium. They thrive best in small, meticulously maintained nano cubes where you can closely admire their intricate beauty.
🪨 Intricate Micro-Aquascaping
A naturally secretive bottom-dweller that requires fine sand and lots of tiny rock crevices, rubble piles, or macroalgae beds to feel secure. They love to claim a small cave or overhang as their personal headquarters, occasionally darting out to grab food before hovering back to safety. 
🍖 Micro-Carnivore Feeding
Requires tiny, high-quality meaty foods to accommodate their small mouths. They eagerly accept live or frozen copepods, cyclops, baby brine shrimp, and finely shaved mysis shrimp. Because they are slow, deliberate feeders, ensure faster tank mates do not steal their meals. 
👥 Safe Nano Tank Mates Only
Completely harmless toward every other inhabitant. They should only be housed with equally peaceful, tiny nano residents such as Sexy Shrimp, Pom Pom Crabs, Neon Gobies, or small Trimma/Eviota gobies. Avoid any aggressive or large fish that could view this tiny gem as a snack.
