Gobies in a BB tank

[GPhiAce]

Just wanting to know if anyone is keeping gobies in a BB tank, and if so, which ones???

i have seen midas blennys not gobys but still a sand sifter in a nearly
BB tank.... i dont think that they would do well in a bb tank though. kinda like putting a radiant wrasse in a bb when they need sand to sleep in,

Could you be more specific? It's like asking if anyone has every kept a wrasse in a BB tank - it's a huge family and we don't know if you're talking about a pencil wrasse, fairy wrasse, or harlequin tusk. There are hundreds of types of gobies that aren't even collected for the hobby.

Point taken. Ones such as the randal's goby, spotted watchmen (the various types) clowns, and some of the more common ones

Watchmen have dens (they don't seem to be good at making them, pistol shrimp are advised), so they would need sand. Clowns are "perchers" and iirc don't need sand. Shrimp gobies for the most part do, I think (no one seems to keep them unless with a shrimp--why?).
