akish5 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 My tank has been doing really well but I was thinking of adding a diamond goby. I already have 2 clowns,a wrasse, 1 skunk cleaner shrimp, 2 peppermint shrimp, 2 emerald crabs and various corals. I'll probably be removing the peppermint shrimp soon I'm definitely going to add a couple more corals. So would adding the diamond goby be too much? I do water changes every week right on time. I feed everyother day but I'm thinking about starting to do daily feedings. What do you guys think?? Link to comment
seabass Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 A diamond watchman goby gets pretty big (and eats a couple of times a day). You'll have to adjust your maintenance to account for the increased bio-load. It should be alright; but I'd still be tempted to get a smaller goby. What kind of wrasse do you have? Link to comment

I bought what I thought was a 6 line but it is a hovens wrasse Link to comment
seabass Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 An adult male Hoeven's Wrasse is a good looking fish. And while they stay fairly small, like many wrasses, they should have a larger tank. Link to comment
akish5 Posted May 26, 2015 Author Share Posted May 26, 2015 Yeah I read that the minimum is 50 gallons so my 29 which is probably like a 24 isn't the best place for him but he is small. And I plan on starting a 100 gallon sometime soon. When he gets larger I might have to put him in a buddy's tank until my other tank is ready. Link to comment
Idaho ken Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Good luck on catching your peppermint shrimp lol, if you successfully do it without tearing your rock work apart, share how you do it! Link to comment
