This species should be housed in a well-filtered, aerated 30 gallon or larger aquarium. Because it requires ample swimming room and a sand bottom for burrowing, the substrate should be of a suitable depth. To prevent aggression from other tank mates, it is recommended to keep it with other peaceful fish of similar size. It is also important to remember that it may become aggressive towards smaller ornamental shrimp, so these should not be kept in the same tank. Lastly, a tight-fitting cover should be used to prevent it from jumping out of the aquarium. This species can be a great addition to any home aquarium, as long as the proper conditions and precautions are taken. With the right care and environment, it can be a beautiful and interesting fish to observe.

The Bluespotted Watchman Goby is a nocturnal species that feeds mainly on prey suspended in the water column. Its diet should include a variety of live and frozen food, such as mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and table shrimp, to ensure a balanced nutrition. To ensure optimal health, this species should be fed at least three times per day. Furthermore, fresh vegetables should be offered as occasional treats for added variety. With proper care, the Bluespotted Watchman Goby can be a successful addition to any aquarium.
