Black-ray goby mother bird regurgitating food to her chicks. This way, the shrimp and the goby are kept well fed. Sometimes, if the shrimp is not kept well fed, it will resort to killing the goby. In the wild, most burrows are shared by male and female goby pairs, with their respective shrimp partners, and the female goby will use this burrow as a nesting site to lay her eggs. The obvious benefits to both organisms of this symbiotic relationship make the interaction a form of mutualism. Here is an interesting example of this. The other fish is a dartfish (genus "Ptereleotris").
Round goby invasive nematode "Anguillicoloides crassus". In the Vistula Lagoon, the most abundant parasites of the round goby are nematodes "Hysterothylacium aduncum" and "Anguillicoloides crassus". 25 species of parasites are noted in the round goby in the Great Lakes. The trematode "D. spathaceum" is most abundant core species overall. Also the cestode "Proteocephalus" sp. and the trematode "Neochasmus umbellus" are rather abundant. The round goby may circumvent more of the metacercariae of "N. umbellus" from completing their life cycle. The parasite “load” on the invasive gobies in the Great Lakes appears relatively low in comparison with their native habitats, lending support to
