Hi everyone. I am really wanting a Clown Goby and am asking here to see if they are okay to put with other gobies in a 46 gallon. All of my gathered research says they are peaceful towards everything except other clown gobies. Are they also aggressive towards other gobies like watchman or maybe shrimp gobies? I was wanting to find a goby/pistol shrimp combo but wont add this in if they will kill the clown. Thanks!

For those of you who read my first post about my tank here is a quick update. I took out the damsels and now have 1 of the blue/green chromis. My other blue/green chromis disappeared so I assumed he got eaten by the crabs and snails. I just got a starry blenny yesterday and so far he is doing pretty good. Got him pretty small which is a lot better IMO. I've set up a quarantine tank for whatever fish comes next and will probably QT for 2-4 weeks depending on what I get and where I got it from. I ordered a coralife super skimmer 125 which should be here on monday. I agree that the canister filter is not enough so I decided to upgrade to the skimmer. We'll see how it goes!
 
I don't think you will have any issues with a clown goby and a shrimp goby in a 46. They occupy very different territories and they look very different.
 
I have a clown goby with a pair of convict gobys in my 75 and they don't even pay any of attention to each other.
