Red Sea goby and nape and there are 24–28 scales in lateral line. It grows to a maximum length of . The Red Sea goby was formerly endemic to the northern Red Sea but have invaded the Mediterranean Sea by Lessepsian migration through the Suez Canal, and is common in the Lake Bardawil and has been found off Israel and Lebanon. The species was described by Paul Chabanaud in 1933 from type specimens collected in Lake Timsah on the Suez Canal. The Red Sea goby can be found on sandy substrates in inshore, shallow waters where it feeds on harpacticoid copepods and nematodes,
Mediterranean–Dead Sea Canal Mediterranean–Dead Sea Canal The Mediterranean–Dead Sea Canal (MDSC) is a proposed project to dig a canal from the Mediterranean Sea to the Dead Sea, taking advantage of the 400-metre difference in water level between the seas. It is not to be confused with the Red Sea–Dead Sea Water Conveyance. The project could correct the drop in the level of the Dead Sea observed in recent years. The canal could also be used to generate hydroelectric power because of surface difference and maybe by salinity gradient power, and desalinate water by reverse osmosis. The idea was first proposed by William Allen
