About two months ago Cyrus (ANGFA WA) went to cathc some fish in the Swan
River. He caught some INTRODUCED Jap Gobies and kept them untill he got
sick of them (about 1 month!!!!). Not knowing what to do with the remaining
goby he brough it in for the raffle table at our last meeting. Ken shaw
ended up taking it home cause no one else wanted it! This goby then
proceeded to live for 4 weeks in a sealed platic fish bag with the bag being
shaken a few times a week to try and kill the fish. After 4 weeks the fish
started to get a little fungus so Ken took it out and now it resided in a
bucket until the next meeting where it will be raffled off! BTW it showed
magnificent colours while sitting in the bag! is this a tough goby or what!
