Are Blennies And Gobies Ok Together?

It seems like on charts it says "Yes", but I've seen a few posts/threads saying how it might not be the best idea?

I have a Starry Blenny, and was thinking about a Clown Goby, probably a green one.
Would they coexist you think?

The problem usually stems from a blenny mistaking a similarly shaped/sized goby for a rival blenny. As a clown goby will look so different from a starry I'd imagine they'd be ok.

That makes sense, so something like a pink-spotted watchman wouldn't work b/c body shape?
I know the clown are much smaller

That combo would definitely be more risky. I'm not exactly sure where a blenny would draw the line. I had a Yasha haze goby with a starry blenny with no problems, but Yashas are quite small.
