It's a 5G so I'm looking to put 2 fish in there.

IMO look only into the smaller gobies

I am all for the starry blenny. Incredible personalities and they somehow manage to get in to every picture you take. My little guy sits on my hand while I clean the tank. They don't make a mess with sand like some other blennies but they are prone to knocking frags over (on purpose I think). Also loved the tailspot blenny. Both are friendly and cute.

Flaming Prawn Goby gets my vote for a tank that size. Max size for this fish is 1 1/2"

From what I've read you put that FPG in your tank , you'll never see it or hardly see it.

I agree that a 5g is too small for a blenny. They like to go around eating film algae off everything and it just wouldn't be enough.

Goby and shrimp pairs are awesome.

Somehow I missed where you said it was a 5g til now.

Barnacle Blennies are the only ones in the Blenny family suited for a tank that small...and even at that, 5g is pushing it.

I think I would find some inverts to feature vs fish in a tank that small.
