I just put in my 40 gallon saltwater a yellow pawn goby and was wondering if he’ll get along with my starry blenny

You should be fine as one occupies the sand and the other is more of a rock dweller. Good luck with the new fish!

They should be ok but starry blennies can get quite aggressive.

They can be aggressive and gobies are a similar shape so I would say it's a bit of a gamble given that the tank isn't really big. Could go either way.

I appreciate the advice but surprisingly enough my starry blenny hasn’t really bothered the goby at all they did swim next to each. other at one point but nothing happened

Different areas of tank. You should be fine.

Yeah I think so because the blenny hangs the rocks and the goby is on the sand but if somebody gets out of line straight to Davey Jones locker
