I agree with you.. I have two yellow spotted gobys n saddle clown who are always at the bottom... Along with the purple lobster.. Knocking on wood e everything has been ok

I know my prl ate my blemmie because I saw him chowing on him in his cave. Just last night he ate my 6inch bristle worm. I always target feed him every other day but never imagined he would go for anything more than double his size. My CUC, clown, and cardinals have been safe but the bottom dwellers are toast.

I had a Purple Reef Lobster in my tank for a month. First to go was my Midas Blenny. Then a Sleeper Gold Head Goby. Like stated earlier it's hit or miss.
