I recently purchased a yellow watchman goby for my 15 gallon tank and I also have 2 clowns in it , my goby would hangout at the bottom of the tank for the first week and a half and looked relaxed but ever since it has been swimming crazy around the tank and jumping into the filter sock from time to time and not resting just constantly swimming , I’ve checked ammonia , nitrite , nitrate , ph and salinity constantly and everything looks perfect, he is eating but I’m not sure what else to do to get him to calm down , he also has a little cave and tunnel , can someone help or give any suggestions ? Also added a pistol shrimp 5 days ago to maybe help
 
Please see duplicate thread for input.
I think your Goby wants different roommates. Clowns are brutal in smaller systems. Even if you're not seeing it the clowns have probably started to stake out territories.
