I have 2 yellow tail damsels that I added 3 weeks ago and a True Perc that I added 2 weeks ago. I have about 6 Astreas(I had ten but, death bug got to them, they drowned after falling and plus some crabs got them) and ten blue legs that I also got 2 weeks ago. I added 5 scarlet reef hermits about a week ago. I have a 55 with good water quality and it is 9 weeks old. I also have a 9 week old DSB that is not fully matured yet.
I want to own a pair of 2 spot-gobies and I plan on waiting a while before I do add them. I know that they do great in pairs, but I have also heard from people that they are hard to keep. However, most sites with info on them say that they are not that hard to keep.
What does their diet consist of?
Is their survival rate good?
Do I need to meet any special demands to keep them?
Thanks

haven't had one, but from what i can see, they aren't that hard to take care of, not easiest, but by no way hard, they are peaceful, do better in pairs, but fine as 1, have no really special needs, except diet, 3 inch, in fact some have been successful breeding tehm(with the right conditions)this in itself tell that they re not as difficult to keep, and their diet should be fed a variety of live vitamin-enriched frozen brine shrimp, mysid shrimp, live black worms and prepared foods for carnivores.
