My mom has a cool one, unfortunately I lost mine in the move a few months back :(
 
I had a green Mandarin for almost 7 years, that would eat frozen and almost from my fingers. I want to get a new one they are the coolest.

The E. goby is cool looking like the black and yellow combo....
 
Nice fishes everyone!

Az that is a pretty cool goby. I've always wanted one, but have been afraid that itwoild perch on my corals and irritate them. What's ur experience?
 
Cool thread! That engineer goby looks sweet!! Where did you get him? I don't remember them looking like that. Very cool.

Here's one of my newest additions

Wheelers watchman goby

And my red head -

My red head does swim over corals and occasionally perches but usually they don't inflate. Like a big puffy acan might just a little but not completely - and is back to normal in moments. The biggest problem I have is my red head and yellow neon goby have been picking a my big green monti cap. So much that it is not very green anymore :mad:

Come on everyone lets see some more!!

That's what I was afraid of. Thanks for the info.
 
I have had no issues with my redhead, and everything I have red says that they do not nip at corals, unlike clown gobies.....I just wish mine had a brigher red head then he does.

In juvenile form the are black with blue stripes running the length of the fish. They actually look alot like cleaner gobies in juvie form. He was a rescue from a tank that was being disassembled. I have always wanted an eel, but could not have one in a reef setup. This guy is about 13" long and around 6 yrs old. Only problem I have with him is his ability to move my sand bed around constantly and cover up some frags on the sand bed. Other than that he has been an excellent tank inhabitant. The only way he will eat is if fed from the end of the tube I use to feed the corals at night.
 
Cool thanks for the info! It is such a coo looking fish - will they swim out in the open much or stay partially under rocks? I am like you I would love to have an eel but my one experiance with a snowflake turned me away from them.
 
I LOVE gobies, i have a bunch.

This guy has alotof character. He usually takes a protective stance over the smaller gobies in the tank. orange spotted prawn goby.





Here is my yellow watchman and orange spot, chilling in the night.



Here is my Orange Spot and Pink bar Goby snuggling as they can often be found doing at night.





This is "Flounder", my Ywg.
