Yellow watchman goby help.

I bought two yellow whatcmans as a pair, they are fighting and one of them is missing for 3 days.

Are you sure they were a pair? It sounds like they were the same sex.

They were hanging out together at the aquarium store and aren't they hermaphrodites?

no, only a very few fish can change sex. If you get 2 fish of the same gender, one will usually kill the other.

They said that someone on this forum will change their gender

I misspoke and you might be right. At the same time it seems not really confirmed.

quote- I believe they are sexually dichromatic, meaning that the male and female are different in color. With every pair that I've seen, the male is bright yellow while the female is grayish, with both having blue dots along their body. But what makes this confusing is that I have seen this fish change color in both directions. Does this mean that they are changing gender as well? I do not know. - unquote
