Diamond Goby and Yellow Watchman

[intenseimage]

We currently have a Yellow Watchman Goby in our 75g and a neighbor is breaking down their tank due to a move they have coming up and is selling their Diamond Goby. Would there be any issues with having these 2 in the same tank?

Thanks !

They will probably fight.

They might. But I had one of each in my 55 with no problems. They were added at the same time though. The yellow watchman was the more aggressive of the two, so yours may not like the new addition. I think it is do-able, but keep an eye on them for the first 24 hours in case there is a problem. Are they about the same size?

Oh, and I like Diamond Gobies for their cleaning skills, but had to get rid of it because it constantly kicked debris into the water column. I was sick of the way it looked. So keep that in mind.

I figure the YWG has his side of the tank with his burrows and mainly looks out the side/back so if this guy roams the sand or sticks to the left side of the tank we will be good

The Diamond will be larger
