Hello! I just got a sand-sifting goby to help keep my sand turned over and to add some variety to my lower portion of the tank. I originally had a Midas blenny and Angular Flasher wrasse with a shrimp/goby pair that lives under my scape. They got along fine but once I added the Sand-sifting goby (I can't remember the exact species, Ill try and get a pic tomorrow if needed) the wrasse got pretty upset and started nipping at the goby. It was to my understanding the Angular Wrasses were very peaceful and not super territorial so I didn't think an acclimation chamber was necessary. It was lights out in my tank 20 min after I put the goby in and tried to check on it every so often with a dim light. It has since moved to the opposite side of the tank away from the wrasse but Im worried about what might happen in the morning when lights go on. Will they eventually get along? Or am I going to have to take the goby or wrasse back?
Some extra details, the tank is about 8 months old with the Blenny and wrasse being in there for about 6 months now. Tank is 45 gal.
