Compatibility question

AnotherLousy1 · 04-30-2008, 10:41 PM

Hello all -

I have a compatibility question for everyone. I love sleeper gobies, have one in my 29 BioCube and he's such a hard worker and does such a great job at keeping the sand sifted thru, etc ...

so for my 58 Gallon, I'm looking at a gold headed sleeper goby to do the same job

I also want to keep a redspotted blenny (way flippin' cool fish IMO)

Now on top of those two, I had always admired the blue spot jawfish ... well, I found one over at bluezoo for $89.96 which I think is a heck of a deal considering they are normally $120 and over ... do you think the three would get along?

Thanks in advance

Hello all, I'm doing a little bump up as I would appreciate hearing from blue spot jawfish owners to see if there will be a compatibility problem.

Thanks again!

Lynette, I don't think you will have any problems with that combo.

I don't see a compatibility issue but be very careful to make sure the blue is healthy and eating before you buy, completely jump proof the tank, and provide lots and lots of rubble to build with.
Aweaome fish but they do have "special needs"

SWEEEEEET! Thanks you two. The problem with ordering this blue spot is the fact that it's from an online company. Granted, I have ordered from them 3 other times for my 29 Gallon and got nothing but HIGH QUALITY corals and livestock.

My tank is completely jump proof, and I have about 3 inches of sand (give or take). Sounds like I need to get some little rubble pieces, but that's an easy one.

YAY! If I get him, can I become part of the blue spot club as well??? <giggle>

Thanks again Scott and Lynn

Get large and small rubble peices. They will use pieces bigger than they are.
