yes or no? Gold head sleeper Goby

[Stephane Cote]

So i did some research and i think the gold head sleeper maybe a good choice. my sand is still brownish and i figure it would be a good choice to have this fish shift the sand around. what do u guys think?

my current stock;

Yellow tank
2 clown fish
1 yellow belly damsel
1 Green chromis
1 firefish

and 1 big peppermint shrimp.

Pretty goby. If you have fine sand, sand sifting gobies can tend to through sand around the tank, which also gets carried onto the rocks by the pumps. People complain about them on the forum all the time. Just something to consider.

yeah i have grainy sand so i don't think that will be much of a prob thx

I see no problem with adding the fish. This is a fish that is going to hide a lot, so you may not see it unless you look for it. It's not going to be out all the time, like some of the other fish you have.

that too won't be a prob.... i have a shy yellow tang and my clowns tend to hide in the GSP.

and the filefish, well he scoots away if i get to close to quick lol

Goby has great personality. Mine use to always be out except at night. But you also have to remember that they will move sand all over and create caves for themselves. Mine made 4 caves and piled sand high enough to cover some rocks
