BTA safe with gobies?

I'm getting a locally raised captive-cloned BTA in January, and I'm very excited about it. But I'm worried about the safety of my pair of tiger gobies. They mostly stick to the bottom of the tank, but they will sometimes hop up on rocks or the tank walls, especially the female. Are BTAs bad to eat small fish like tiny gobies? Are most fish smart enough to steer clear of anemones?
 
My Diamond Goby is fine with my GBTA

He will occasionally swim up near the foot but no higher. My GBTA is up high on my rocks.
 
Should be ok...but I'd monitor its movement and once it's happy and established...the fish will be aware of its location and generally steer clear! :)
 
Your gobies will be BTA food some day.

My RBTA ate a blue mandarin goby within 6 months.
Had her for 7 years before she was consumed by that beast. :(
 
should be fine I have had mine together over a year and they do swim near the foot but mine has never got in side of the rbta
