Philippine Goby

Sicyopus cebuensis



Our group Aquatic Cebu Enthusiasts conducted river trekking in Balirong, Naga, Cebu here in the Philippines.

The river is at the base of Mt. Uling. We caught about 4 fishes and placed it in our tanks. It its just right now that we came to realize that our find is a rare one with Laurent Pasteur's information share to our group.

Hope we can conserve this fish from extinction because of the practice of the people nearby when they throw garbage to the river and much more ... the use of pesticides for their farm.

Laurent, could you please make some adjustment of the size of the picture. Sorry for it.

here is my friend .
Could you redo photos or videos of the fish so that we can submit them to the researchers.

If you can set an example for other aquarists, make his presentation, we discover your aquarium and your experience aquarist.

Thank you and I am very touched by your registration.

Why the farmer uses the products, organic farming is not practiced?

As to the pesticides, the used whatever is available commercially. They say the pesticide is eco-friendly but I think this is just a misnomer. I think, all fertilizers is not good to the environment

should investigate and try to understand why some fish are classified in the Red List (endangered).
