kgoldy Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 They just laid their first clutch this week. I'm looking to get rid of them because they're getting a little aggressive now that they're breeding... And I have a smaller watchmen gobies that are getting bullied as a result. They don't seem to be biting anything, but they are displaying with their mouths open, and forcing my other gobies into hiding. Asking $80 firm, shipping from 11710 Yes, they're that "blue steel" color- check the ORA site, the ones they sell tend to be that color instead of the typical yellow. Link to comment
cbandotho Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 How big of a tank do you think they would they have to be in to be housed with other gobies? Link to comment
kgoldy Posted August 20, 2011 Author Share Posted August 20, 2011 I have them in my 90 gallon and they're being territorial... At the moment, they aren't paired with a pistol shrimp, (they used to have a tiger pistol but it was killed by another pistol who doesn't want to pair up with gobies) so they're kind of wandering the whole tank. A lot of people keep these guys in very small tanks, I've seen pairs happy in a 14 Biocube, as long as they have a pistol to burrow for them. ...You could probably PM AnimalMaster and he could give you a better answer.

cbandotho Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 I have an 80g that I would love to put them in but I already have a pair of Randall gobies that are paired with a pistol shrimp. It would be cool to get them another pistol shrimp and see if they would settle on the other side but I wouldn't want to end up with 4 dead gobies. I will see what AM thinks Link to comment

kgoldy Posted August 21, 2011 Author Share Posted August 21, 2011 I'll be using a 5 lb insulated Live Aquaria box. Check shipping rates here Buyer chooses and pays for shipping, anything that isn't overnight will not have an arrive alive guarantee. Link to comment

kgoldy Posted September 11, 2011 Author Share Posted September 11, 2011 Bump- removed shipping option. Will trade straight up for a pair of yasha watchmen or similar sized gobies. Link to comment
animalmaster6 Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Just happened to find this thread Awesome gobies goldy! I would probably get them but I dont have a big enough tank atm I have an 80g that I would love to put them in but I already have a pair of Randall gobies that are paired with a pistol shrimp. It would be cool to get them another pistol shrimp and see if they would settle on the other side but I wouldn't want to end up with 4 dead gobies. I will see what AM thinks I think it can definitely be done as long as there is enough sandbed space. What are the dimensions of this tank? Link to comment
