An unlikely duo

[Sphyrna_gal]

Wondering if anyone wants to share their lesser known goby duos out there? Anyone ever had a clownfish hang out with their watchman goby before?

I have kept watchman gobies before with pistol shrimp and have them be buddies with other goby species but this is my first time seeing one of my two Davinci clowns hang out and even sleep in the little same corner sand pit with my yellow watchman goby... will try to get a photo to share. They don't seem to bother each other, funny enough the goby stays in one place and lets the clown's fins touch it.

On another note, I don't have an anemone yet (still unsure if I want to add one at all) but curious if the clown's behavior would correlate to it being more willing to host in one?

I can't say that I have but I was just reading about a blue tang hanging with clowns. :)

Here are some of my favorites:

• Engineer goby, jawfish and coral banded
• melanarus and foxface
• chromis and clownfish

My twin spot goby likes hangin around my old female clown!

UPDATE: I added a piece of live rock and now the goby has ditched everyone and now lives inside a hole/cave within the rock. While the goby/clown relationship was somewhat short-lived, I still hope they frolic around the tank when I'm not watching :D Have loved hearing everyone's pairs! If you have more keep sharing

I know this is kind of an old thread but I have a Clarkie and a Bubble molly that have become best friends.

PSA: I don't care how old this thread becomes BRING ON THE BESTIES!! :star-struck:

In an update: my watchman hangs out with a yellow headed sleeper goby ..which they make quite a dashing and matching duo LOL.
