Blennys and Gobys?

[immaman2011]

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone ever mixed a tailspot blenny, orange cirton goby, and orange spotted goby together before? Or any of the 2 together? I heard sometimes blennys bully gobys or vice-versa.

Shouldn't have a problem

In my experience all blennys are jerks but I do make exceptions for tail spots because they are so cute. I have never seen any aggression from any blenny towards gobies though. The blennys go after the larger fish.

I will have eventually 2 oscerellis clowns, 3-5 blue reef chromis, and 1 royal gramma basslet so if the blenny does that it might end up in blenny getting chomped. I will add in most peaceful to most aggressive in order so hopefully that doesn't happen.

I'll bet the royal gramma becomes the boss of that group.

Really? Why do you say that? Is that a bad thing lol?

I have a tail spot blenny, striped fang blenny and purple fire fish which I believe is a goby species with no problems. They are all model citizens.

Royal grammas have a reputation of being agressive kind of like dottybacks. All fish are different though. I would still get one. I think your fish selection is pretty nice.

Well I have an Orange Diamond Goby and a Black Spot Goby in my 36g and they get along find

I tried to pick a color variety at the same time putting fish together that would get along.

Thanks. I will give updates as I stock.

Also if you have a small tank I would say NO they will fight for space

I have a tail spot blenny with a couple of clown gobies and a tiny watchman goby. I rarely see the watchman goby, it hides with a pistol shrimp all of the time, and the others could care less that they are in the tank together.

I want my stock to be 2 clowns, 3-5 blue reef chromis, 1 royal gramma basslet, 1 orange citron goby, 1 orange spotted goby, 1 tailspot blenny.

That and the 12 snails I got in there already.

My Maroon pair doesn't pay attention to the others. Not sure about chromic or basslet though

Yeah i was originally looking at a maroon pair but I heard they are more aggressive usually then normal clowns. They also grow to be nearly 7 inch long, females being bigger. So for 36g I just got the ones that grow up to 3 inch.
