Dr.Brain Coral Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 This may seem like a weird question but bear with me. One of my favorite things about the ocean is finding all the hidden that arent noticed at first and are over looked. I was wondering if there where any suggestions for fish or inverts that will fit in with this theme. Coral crouchers seem really cool. Anything you suggest has to be able to fit in a ten gallon Link to comment
k4ndyk1ng Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Some sort of blenny must fit this role Link to comment
1.0reef Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 "Micro" Gobies are nice, Trimma, Eviota, etc are nice. ORA breeds some as well. Assessors could also work, along with dartfish. Link to comment
hwk7072 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I thought my bicolor blenny was going to be a shy vegetarian peering out of a crevice. But he's an extroverted carnivorous pig who steals mysis out of the clownfish's mouth. Not what I expected, total goofball poser. Love it. So maybe not a bicolor. Link to comment
TheKleinReef Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 most basslets. i always get excited when i see it dart in between the rocks, cause it's so mysterious and infrequent. Link to comment
Pinner Reef Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Flaming Prawn Goby will be the most expensive game of where's Waldo you will ever get to play on a daily basis. Also they're damn cool fish. Link to comment
KeRogers Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 clown gobies are my favorite Link to comment

Dr.Brain Coral Posted November 7, 2014 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 Flaming prawns are awesome!! Link to comment
Snow_Phoenix Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 I think a whitecap goby can give the flaming prawn a run for its money. Link to comment
basser1 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 How about a yellow assessor? They add a nice splash of yellow color and they have a quirky way of swimming upside down Link to comment
Roshan8768 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 I vote for a neon or yellow line goby. Tailspot blenny's are also a favorite Link to comment
Tamberav Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Also if you like shy things.... a pom pom crab would fit the bill. Link to comment
Dr.Brain Coral Posted November 8, 2014 Author Share Posted November 8, 2014 Lots of Great suggestions. Dont the assessors get big? Or am I thinking of something else Shadow I think you are right, that goby is awesome. Link to comment
1.0reef Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Lots of Great suggestions. Dont the assessors get big? Or am I thinking of something else Shadow I think you are right, that goby is awesome. Assessors get around 2-3 inches. Link to comment
tess&ellie Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Red head goby, green clown goby, sexy shrimp Link to comment
Guits Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Rusty gobies are appropriate for small tanks and can be really secretive. Mine has a spot it likes to hang out and dart out during feeding time. http://s1181.photobucket.com/user/guits/media/IMG_0956.jpg.html'> Link to comment
metrokat Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 +1 to rusty gobies and masked gobies. That's a nice tank guits, got a thread? Link to comment
Dr.Brain Coral Posted November 9, 2014 Author Share Posted November 9, 2014 Would a Coral croucher have a big enough mouth to be a threat to small gobies? Link to comment
Guits Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 +1 to rusty gobies and masked gobies. That's a nice tank guits, got a thread? Thanks! I actually have a rusty goby and 2 masked gobies in my tank haha. Here's the tank thread: http://www.nano-reef.com/topic/349178-guits-rose-garden/ Link to comment
Dr.Brain Coral Posted November 14, 2014 Author Share Posted November 14, 2014 I was at my lfs a little bit ago and saw an ADORABLE red scooter blenny. I never realized how small they are. I was wondering if a single scooter would be okay in a ten gallon. I don't know if it was eating frozen but next time I am up I can ask Link to comment

It's probably not the best fit though... I'm sure you can find a more appropriate fish for your setup with a similar personality Link to comment
aquariumlover10 Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 A tiger goby from here. http://www.tbsaltwater.com/thepackage/organisms.html They are smal and look awesome, also are suppose to be kinda like a clown goby hiding and sitting in corals. Link to comment
