Peter,
Im not sure if this is accurate. Fisheries guys here are of the
impression that all Desert Gobies have the same taxonomy. I was told that
DG's didnt actually originate in Coward springs but were actually put there
by a farmer or someone. Id be interested if you could justifiably disprove
this. Re the question asked about breeding: only one male will ever
contribute in a tank at one time.
