@ cindy thanks for the info. After doing some more internet trolling, I found a post from someone who said their bsjf ate their clown goby....And my clownfish is tiny...like maybe an inch and a quarter...but more like an inch. So, I don't think i'll take the chance right now. maybe in 6mo-a...

Anyone have any experience or has anyone found any information about bsjf eating a smaller tankmate? I just picked up a sweet snowflake clown....but he's tiny. And I have him in a critter cage in the tank just to be sure he doesn't get eaten. I have a bsjf pair. The male is big-6in. The...

I'll get pic's up as soon as i can, but I'm working crazy 60 hrs weeks right now, so it won't be for until that subsides. As far as sexing them goes....it is pretty tough. I looked/searched for literature online over the last few years, and haven't found any definitive characteristic to...

@SiNNer.....Thanks :) @tnwillia.....I had the male first for about 3-4 months. In that time, I tried adding a "female" 2 times, both were males, and had to return both. This last time I had a pretty good hunch it was a girl..ie smaller head/buchal cavity (sp) but it was really a crap shoot...

anybody with a pair care to share the behavior of them? I'd really appreciate any insight!! :) Thanks!!

Hi all, It's been ages since I've been on here. I hope everyone's bsjf are thriving!!! :) Below is a few questions, and then a play by play account of the behavior of my 2 bsjf. few questions for people who have a pair of BSJF: I'm curious how your pair behave together. Do they...

I had a pair of clowns that were going after my bsj. So I moved there anemone to the other side of the tank (away from my Blue spots burrow) and everything was fine after that. Hope it helps. :)

my bsjf jumped out of a tank that was completely covered about 6 mo. ago. I left the glass top pushed back after feeding in the morning, so there was about 2 in.. free for him to get out....and he did. I had company in from out of town, and 4-5 people walking back and forth from room to room...

What's the temp in the tank? They do like cooler water...so that might be a contributing factor along with the voltage suggestion from an earlier post. Also, do you have a deep sand bed/rubble for your BS to make a home? I've found after trying to facilitate a home for them(building up...

Well...the new BS made a home about 7 inches away from my established blue spot(Pearl)....and after 2 days, things seemed to be fine...Pearl ignored him...but today....they must have seen each other for the first time, because they both started flaring their jaws and acting big and tough...

Thanks for the info Teresa!! I actually just bought my 2nd yesterday, and added him. I was pretty sure he was a "he"...and he is. ...however, Pearl, my BSJF turns out is actually a he too. They didn't really see each other until today, but once they did, the jaws flaired, and they went at...

Yeah, I hear that. I am a little low on funds myself, and not really sure if I want to take the 130$ plunge for another one right now. Especially, with "pearl" (my bsjf) doing so well right now, I am not sure i want to take the chance if it could ultimately cause problems, and possibly end up...

Sorry to hear about your recent fish loss. I'm hoping to avoid that myself. I have a bsjf, had about a month or so, and she's doing great(i say she, but that's just a guess). I also have a bs watchmen goby, and I was actually worried it would beat up on my bsjf. However, both are existing...

Thanks all for the suggestions! Yeah, an arrow crab would be nice, but I'm afraid some of my other fish would make a quick meal out of him. I built a couple home-made traps out of tupperware, which is starting to get results. I'm still curious more on the scientific front. If anyone...

Hehe...yeah...reduced bristle worms would be ideal ;) The reduced feeding should help, and maybe a home-made trap, but realistically, I would probably have just as much luck extracting all the salt from the tank as I would eliminating every single bristle worm. :) For now, she seems to be...
