Multiple gobies in a reef tank?

[KylerMT98]

What's everyone think about keeping multiple gobies in a tank? I'm wanting to put a couple smaller gobies (yasha, catalina, etc) and a blue spot jawfish in my 180g, but from what I've read they get rather territorial.

I’ve had three fire gobies in a 30 gallon and yes, they do get territorial I can’t speak for others though. In my case after a few months one harassed the other to it’s death and then another disappeared for 3 weeks now, still no sign of it, this was after I rescaped the tank to reduce coral aggression and break up territory. I never saw it after rescaping and it didn’t jump and wasn’t completely eaten as I don’t have anything that could eat it fully

I've kept multiple gobies, and yes they work, enless they compete for the space or territory. Territory could mean one small cave or the whole tank.

I always keep multiple gobies and so far have had no issue.

I currently have 4. A pink spot, diamond, and a pair of wheelers.

Id bet in.a 180 they will find their own spaces to call their home

I would never bet with fish but yes it's all trail and error, always have a backup plan

Keep in mind that Catalina gobies don't fair well in our reef tanks, since they come from more temperate regions.
