I didnt know they were called Night Watchman Gobies. I have one of those and it took me a long time to find one myself. I paid $43 for mine, so you got a deal...lol. We call them Dragon Gobies or Barred Gobies. Whatever they are called, they are cool fish. They do a great job of keeping my sand nice and clean. Good Luck and enjoy.

hes a bristle i thought she was a brittle at first but found out shes not.
but shes harmless she eats mysis and wriggles them up her leggs once caught she also eats my alge hair at times wich is a bit wierd.
but i tell you what for a star fish this girl can move so fast.
but she does not eat any fish to be honst she hangs out with th goby but the goby scares her at times and flees.
she also likes to hid from the light in the night she's a queen showing off lol.
good buy if you ask me :)
