Weird little thing: my firefish and Dracula watchman Pistol pair have been happily sharing a burrow. Is this normal behavior?
Gobies will peacefully share burrows quite often, I too have caught a pair of my gobies sharing a burrow which were my Griessingeri and my Yasha. I find this to be normal behaviour

It’s the same thing here! My griessingeri is a large specimen so almost an inch if not already an inch. My yasha on the other hand is 2 inches and quite happily perching in his rockwork on the sand bed, I’m sure he has his own small dip in the sand under it where he shares it with the griessingeri sometimes.

Had this happened eventually the yellow watchman goby got older and bolder and evicted the firefish. Now he’s the new boss

Yeah that’s why I took the picture wish I had the orange filter but it was funny. The molt was just floating around prior to feeding and he just probably thought it was food dropping by.
