Blue cheek goby

Tonydoby3003 · Nov 18, 2020

Hi earlier on today I bought a small blue cheek goby about 2 inches long. I have in my tank two fairly large clownfish, one smallish royal gramma a small ish for tang sized blue eyed tang and an orange spot goby with a pistol shrimp. And I know what people will say but they gobies are on opposite sides of the tank and my tank is 6 foot long. My issue isnt the gobies they have no issue with each other but the clowns and royal gramma seem to be having a go at my blue cheek every time he comes out? Is this normal? Thank you!

I had this same issue with my clownfish and dragonet. Ultimately, the dragonet wasn't able to get out to eat and unfortunately died. If it's really bad, the best option would be to move him.

Oh well cheers though mate I don't know if its because he's currently borrowing near where they swim roughly?
