JeffP Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 I've got a nice looking Pink & blue Watchman Goby - but the s.o.b. hardly does any sandbed turning like I thought he would. Would getting an orange diamond goby cause a huge conflict? Or the dragon goby? I want someone to keep my bed stirred - I've already got a good amount of Narsarrus and Ceriths, want another approach too. thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 What size tank? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffP Posted July 6, 2007 Author Share Posted July 6, 2007 What size tank? It's a 60G. I've also got 2 blue stripe clowns, a lawnmower, and a six line. Coming soon from another guys tank, coral beauty and 3-pack of PJ Cardinals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 I think you'll be ok with another goby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffP Posted July 6, 2007 Author Share Posted July 6, 2007 sweet! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectra Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 I asked the same to Joel at waves and he said two sandsifting gobys might not get along. I know my Diamond goby is a sandsifting machine. The sand changes daily thanks to him. You never know they might get along if the other one does not sift the sand.Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pledosophy Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 My pink spotted watchman also does not touch the sand bed. JME Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 But Jeff's tank is double the size of yours Scott, much more territory for them to cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kriswaters Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 My twin spot has done wonders with my sand in my 55 gallon...he is elusive and very shy...but fun to see when he is out. Kris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowman Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 The pink spotted goby I had did nothing to stir the sand bed either. They are more of a shrimp goby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - mine quickly paired up with my coral banded - for about 2 weeks, then the shrimp ditched him when he found a cooler cave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidalsculpin Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 One kernel of advice that I have been given is that if you have two gobies that look quite similar you may have aggression. They tend to be very territorial even with different types of fish. Keep this in mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
