Uploadead Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 Gobies are better because they then to help sift the sand, but Im sure a damsel (maybe 2- depends on tank size) would be fine. tell us your tank specs and size. HTH Link to comment
Carinya Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 I wouldn't. Maybe one of the really small gobies like a neon. Link to comment

circusordie16 Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 i wouldnt put any fish in a 2.5 gallon. Link to comment
Hekim Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Drain the water, aquascape the live rock, pour the sand around the rock, smooth it all out. Put a glass in the tank and slowly pour the water into the glass, it will get cloudy but thats ok. I would not put any fish in a 2.5, sexy shrimp or peppermint shrimp. snails and hermits work fine.

clifford513 Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 A green banded goby would be fine in a 2.5g, imo. Haven't read the suggested stocking list, but I will Link to comment
caer urfa Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I just put a neon goby in my 6 gallon and it looks a bit small for him, havin said that I do have a lot of rock in there.

xmen0075 Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 The gum drop goby looks cool. What's it tempermant? And how big do they ultimatley get? Thanks. Link to comment
caer urfa Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 must admit don't know anything about them - but to quote the guy on lubbockreefclub.com The Gumdrop Coral Croucher resembles a goby and is actually a member of the scorpionfish family. These fish are native to the reefs in the Coral Sea. They are often found in and about both hard and soft corals. This fish is gray/white in color with many red dots covering the body. The entire body is covered with small hair-like appendages which gives this fish a fuzzy appearance. The spines on the dorsal fins of this fish are venomous. If you are stung, the reaction may be similar to a bee sting only a little stronger never mind the venemous spines that dude has a cold unblinking eye that pierces your soul!!! Link to comment
