Purple Tile Goby

Purple Tile Goby, Hoplolatilus purpureus, is an acrobatic, attractive, and active addition to either the reef or fish only aquarium. It requires open space and does best in conditions that are not overcrowded. As with other Tilefish, the Purple Tile Goby does best in pairs or in groups. Tilefish prefer sandy aquarium substrates and a lot of Live Rock. They will tend to keep to themselves rather than “mingling” with other species. Groupings should be introduced together. Tilefish do like to leap if startled, therefore, require a covered aquarium. Its body is a variety of shades of purple. The tail is accented with deep red markings that form a contrasting “V.” Harmless to Corals, Tilefish are carnivores who will accept about any meaty food.
