my first goby

[new-2-the reef]

Bought myself a yellow watchman goby the other day ,he is really neet looking with some nice markings on his body..I was informed about this type of goby a few weeks back by another member on here who told me about the pairing up between him and the pistol shrimp,,
I should get the pistol some time next week..

I have one question about the pair,would I be able to get another type of goby/mandrin fish to put in my tank that would not disturb the pair?

thanks Clint

Hi Clint. Watchman's are fairly non-aggressive, but the other goby you add may not be. I personally wouldn't. Mandarins would get along, but Mandarins need big and established tanks to live.
