Diseases and Parasites
provided by Fishbase
Procerovum Infestation 1. Parasitic infestations (protozoa, worms, etc.)
Migration
provided by Fishbase
Amphidromous. Refers to fishes that regularly migrate between freshwater and the sea (in both directions), but not for the purpose of breeding, as in anadromous and catadromous species. Sub-division of diadromous. Migrations should be cyclical and predictable and cover more than 100 km.Characteristic elements in amphidromy are: reproduction in fresh water, passage to sea by newly hatched larvae, a period of feeding and growing at sea usually a few months long, return to fresh water of well-grown juveniles, a further period of feeding and growing in fresh water, followed by reproduction there (Ref. 82692).
Morphology
provided by Fishbase
Dorsal spines (total): 7; Dorsal soft rays (total): 12 - 13; Analspines: 1; Analsoft rays: 13

Long-tail tentacle goby
provided by wikipedia EN
Oxyurichthys microlepis, commonly known as the maned goby, is a species of goby[2] native to tropical marine and brackish waters along the coasts of the Indian Ocean from Africa to the western Pacific Ocean where it occurs in estuaries and inshore waters to depths of about 75 metres (246 ft).[3][4] It occurs in the Mekong Delta and is suspected to use the tidal flow up the river to reach as far inland as Cambodia.[4] This species can reach a length of 13.5 centimetres (5.3 in) TL. It is of minor importance to local commercial fisheries and can also be found in the aquarium trade.[4]
