Thank you Eagle_Steve. That makes me feel better if it does not go back. They sure seem happy together (the gobies) so maybe they are male and female. Everything else I have read says they are very territorial otherwise.

I have been married for eighteen years and have tons of information to offer about human relationships. However, a watchman goby and shrimp I'm not quite so familiar with. Soooo I'm trying to say "welcome to the forum". I'm guessing it is just the most comfortable situation for them. Welcome to R2R!

Welcome to R2R, Todd!
Welcome to R2R! Always interesting to see the tank dynamics change in a reef tank 
Warning... the reef side of saltwater can be quite addictive.

I see have not updated this post for a while. So here is an update:
I went and purchased a Randall's Goby for the other shrimp about 6 weeks ago. They have been doing great together and the two YWG are still with the same shrimp, all still living together though they have burrowed through about 2/3rd of the tank while the Randall's and his shrimp are still under one rock. What scares me is they have created a burrow under a rock my carpet anemone is on and it is on the side of is so at times if it is open all the way part of it is touching the sand. It was small when I got it (1 1/2" in diameter) now it is about 7" Was not looking for a carpet anemone , it was down in a hole in a live rock my wife wanted. So a nice free surprise until I started doing research and then realized it was not a mini! Yet grwoing has seemed to slow so maybe it is just a big mini but it sure is not blotchy or has bald spots on it like all the minis I have seen posted and at the LFS
