Gobies

[armyman16]

Would a yellow watchman goby get along with a diamond watchman goby? I already have a yellow but I want to get another goby or even Benny that sifts through sand...if the diamond watchman goby won't work...what will sift through the sand?

They should get along if u want something that sifts the sand sifting starfish work great.

To me it depends on the size of the tank. If this was a 6 ft tank I believe you would be OK. A smaller tank I would be concerned as there will probably be some aggression issues.

I agree with the above statement. I have found the best way is even if its another to get one that's shaped entirely different I have a purple spotted goby and bull nose/ brown barred goby and they don't mind each other but I wouldn't have got a diamond since their shapes are identical.

I have a yellow watchman and a golden head sleeper both the same size in a 60 gallon tank. They get along great. Sleeper is very active and constantly sifting sand. Watchman hides most of the day except when feeding but no aggression between them.
