Can you have two gobies in a tank?

I know two blennies typically don't mix, but is the same true for gobies? I already have a blue jaw sleeper goby and I'd like to add a yellow watchman goby too. Will these two guys mix? anyone ever have any problems w/ two?

Hey Ben,
I had to clown goby's together and had no problem but I dont know about the 2 you are wondering about

 

[tdfox]

yes but not happily!

yeah I have 2 but one lives in the overflow. I have not witnessed it but it may get chased there by the other.

I have had a yellow watchman and a pink bar gobies in together. i gave them both their own pistol shrimp, but when the pink bar's shrimp died he moved in with the yellow watchman.

Wow - unbeleivable. How cute & funny - certainly not something you see everyday.

Hey my helfrichi paired up with your tiger Ben

coool JR. Well, just got the yellow watchman home and getting ready to release him from the bag. My blue jaw is a scardy cat and hides from everything, so I think I'll be pretty ok.

A couple weeks ago I put in a gray watchman and a pistol shrimp. A couple days later I put in a yellow watchman and a red pistol shrimp. The gray watchman got into a bit of a fight with the newly added red pistol and I haven't seen the red pistol since the first day. The two watchman seem to get along fine. The one pistol made a home for the gray watchman... left him for a few days and built a home for the yellow guy and then returned to the his first buddy and they have remained buddies for a couple weeks now. I still don't know what happened to the red pistol... I hope he isn't dead in the rocks somewhere!
