Hi Chris,
I was in the same position about a month ago when I bought my fist pair of D.Gs,
now they are out of control, spawning about every two weeks.
I keep them in brackish water (S.G. about 1.005) with my other gobies in
water that is about 26 deg C.
Yes, feed the fry baby brine shrimp and then finely powered fry food.
Good luck.
Richard.
