goby worries

[renogaw]

I have a pink/blue spotted shrimp (watchman) goby. it never leaves the right side of the tank, and rarely comes out from under its rock. It does though open its mouth at my coral beauty whenever the coral beauty feels like tail thwapping it (little instigator...).
i'd like to add a pearly jawfish. I'm also thinking about a fire fish. any issues with adding both to the tank? I know bill109 said his p/b ate a firefish, i just don't think mine is big enough to do so. just wondering who else has experience with these fish and if they will cohabitate.

i had a yellow watchman with a firefish for about a year. then i got a jawfish in between that time and everyone coexisted well, but the jawfish went missing and dissappeared (didn't jump)

How is your pink/blue goby doing? I was thinking about ordering one of them. Is it a good sifter?

 

[renogaw]

it is not a sifter. its actually one of the more beligerant gobies, and is mainly a carnivore, so it needs meaty foods.

Hey thanks for responding. After reading some more about them I decided on the diamond watchman goby. Thanks again
