Okay so I picked up four neon gobies from my lfs, while their still small now, I plan on breeding them. Should I put the in my display tank (210g sps reef tank with plenty of other fish) or should I take them and put them in a separate breeders setup? Their in a breeders net in the 210g now. My main concern is will they do as well being separated from other fishes that need cleaning?
Also what's their favorite food, I know they have small mouths? Like I know their not going to eat P.E mysis
 
Your never gonna get them out of your 210...

I would set up a separate tank. They will eat small foods don't necessary have to clean a particular fish. Cylops are something good to try.
 
Okay thanks a lot, yeah that's what I figured, there's too many hiding places for them in a tank that size. I already lost one, I didn't know they were such good jumpers! When I was drip acclimating them the largest one jump oi
