I’ve read it means female.Noticed your yellow goby is grey. I just got one and mine is too. Is this okay? Female? It was yellow and I put it into my quarantine tank and it instantly went grey?
I believe it is a gender thing, but I also heard it is a stress response, or they change colors as they mature. I don't know which is correct, but when I received it from LA, I was really irritated and contacted them to tell them they sent me the wrong fish as it was not YELLOW! But they said it was right. I looked it up, and it appears to be the case. Mine has always been white and grey and seems perfectly happy and healthy with his shrimp.Noticed your yellow goby is grey.

I do kinda like the white - the pattern is nice.I believe it is a gender thing, but I also heard it is a stress response, or they change colors as they mature.

Don't give up hope. We added our yellow watchman from our fluval evo to our 75 gallon on December 24th, never saw it again after December 26th. Showed up yesterday and it has doubled in size. Apparently the burrow entrance was facing the back of the tank where we couldn't see it. Now the aurora goby pair, the firefish, and 2 of my tilefish moved in with him and his candy pistol shrimp, and the burrow entrance is back at the front of the rock.Currently have 4 fish (maybe 5):
Banggai cardinal
Tailspot Blenny
Pinkbar/Aurora Goby
Six Line Wrasse
And maybe a firefish, I had two, and one died, and the other was around for a few days and then disappeared, so don’t know if it’s still among the living. These were from a blackfriday sale, and the salinity of the tank they came from was 1.032, so despite a slow acclimation, they had a rough time settling in, they remained skittish and stayed right by their hidey hole for the 2-3 months I had them. Hoping one is still alive, but I haven’t seen it in a little over a week.

NVM1 clown at the moment, but I'm planning to get a firefish soon because I have just discovered a local fish store that's only 2.5 miles away AND has firefish which I have been struggling to find, for 19.99!
By me 20 is normalthey should be around 10$

Went from 19 to 6, too dang depressed over a wicked flukes outbreak, from qt'ed stock, when I was on the road for work.
