Impact of the Round Goby
Round goby fish belong to a large family of fish that is found through out the world. ... The round gobies originate from the Black Sea, Caspian Sea, and the Sea of Azof, where from they have been taken in by ballast water from sea going vessels. When the vessels arrived at their destination at the Great Lakes, they had to release the ballast water from the ship, which released the round gobies as well. ... Since there are many shipwrecks in Lake Erie and Lake Huron, many round gobies have made their nests there. ...
The round goby is a problematic invader because of their reproduction, their behaviour, and feeding strategies. ... They also evict other fish from their nesting sites.
