Can you mix gobies?

I am new to saltwater and I am wondering if I can mix gobies?

My set up is:
Fluval Osaka 260L (70g)
100 lbs of live sand
70 lbs of live rock
Fluval 406 canister filter (in process of getting a sump)
2 hydro koralia 1400 powerheads

Current livestock:
2 true perculas
1 blue/green chromis
1 lawnmower blenny
2 skunk cleaner shrimp
4 turbo snails
4 electric blue hermit crabs

I want to add some sort of shrimp with a pistol shrimp. Would this work?
Would I be able to add any other gobies? Or would they fight?

Liveaquaria.com has them broken down into 3 categories
- sand sifter gobies
- shrimp gobies
- small gobies

Would I be able to add one goby from the shrimp goby section and one from sand shifting without having problems?

Help would be greatly appreciated.
 
I have a 40"x24"x24" and have a yasha goby, Wheeler's shrimp goby, ornate goby (Istigobius ornatus) and also a blue neon goby. They all seem to get along.

I also have a pair of pistol shrimps who sometimes associate with the Wheeler's but mostly seem to do their own thing.

I was thinking of getting a yellow watchman goby and add a couple of green banded goby. Live aquaria says that the green banded goby to well in groups.
