I'm currently wondering if the addition of a Catalina Goby and a Yellowhead Jawfish would be compatible with my Midas Blenny.

Additional information:
My tank is 22 gallon Reef tank

Thank you!
 
Not sure about the blenny and jaw fish, I think they are ok. But the Catalina goby comes from water that is cooler than a typical reef system (i think mid to low 70s) and generally will not do well if kept at the higher temps on a long term basis.
 
Oh, just re read that your tank is 22. The Midas blenny is on my fish list so I have read up on them a good bit. Don't have one yet though. From what I understand they can become aggressive in tanks smaller than a 30. Something to keep in mind adding a similar bodied fish.
 
Agreed, the Catalina's are colder water species and I've personally watched them suffer horribly and die in a reef tank. I wouldn't recommend trying one.
