Mudskippers are my favorite fish!
I had a P. barbarus for a couple years and he was fantastic!
He lived in a 65g viv setup (it was mostly tall, it was used at a reptile shop, it now houses my adopted Leopard Geckos but after Skip moved out of it it was my favorite fishtank) that had a layer of 100% clay (cat litter. lol), play sand and then around the sides and back (kind of a crescent) I had gravel built up to make land areas and also had rock and driftwood for him to jump on.
I'm attaching two pictures of Skip in that house.
If you get a couple of the Indian kind they would do nicely in a well set up 40g and I might actually be doing that in the near future, I haven't had one in years and he was so great.
He ate, well, prettymuch anything... sadly he had a great fondness for fiddler crabs but he also ate a couple guppies (I'm surprised he could catch them in there), crickets, worms... amphibious garbage disposal. haha
