sharoleb Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Ok - there are SO MANY options for fish now that I have a 75. (clap) I have a cleaner goby already that will be transferred in a couple weeks. At some point down the line I'm considering a yasha goby and shrimp pair. Will the two gobies be compatable? Also I'm considering a midas blenny, or maybe differnet kind of blenny. I just love their cute little faces!! Any other cool shrimp/goby pairs? Where to get them? Thoughts please? Thanks!

Rick Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Gobies are kind of hit and miss. I had a gold headed sleeper that attacked a purple fire fish the first time I put it in the tank so I took it out and put it in another tank. 2 weeks later I tried it again and it was just fine.

gradth Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I have a diamond goby and a lawnmower in my 180 and they get along great, used to have a midas as well and him and my LMB sat right next to each other. Also have a sailfin blenny and diamond in my other tank and they get along well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharoleb Posted October 12, 2010 Author Share Posted October 12, 2010 Thanks everyone for the input. I'm really excited for these as I am facinated w/ the symbiotic relationships in our hobby. Can't wait to get them. Now, after reading more and more, I found I did my rock work all wrong. DOH! Yup, it's on top of the sand bed. (scary) With as much as I really thought I had planned all of this out I could just kick myself for not knowing this sooner. So - does everyone who has the shrimp/goby pair all have their sand on top of the rock? My husband just told me when he put the rock in he dug it in as deep as he could. Good enough? Thanks.

gradth Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 If you getting a sandsifter, make sure its stable. That is why placing it before the sand is important. They dig and move sand all day. If your rock is not stable your gonna have some issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
