    I had two green ones and maybe they are in my overflow but I haven't seen them for a while! They used to live on my xenia. Very cute!!

    So one of the Yellow Clown Gobies is definitely dominant. He chased the other one around the tank and established his dominance. The other YCG is healthy but spending all his time in one corner except when hes out to get some cyclopeeze to eat. I moved a small piece of LR and a small Kenya Tree over there for him and hes hiding in that. I also grabbed a Green Clown Goby whom I rarely see but is very cool.

    Hey! Congratulations! :) Green gobies are pretty shy... The yellow ones -> Gobiodon okinawae are probably the most "sociable" ones! Can't wait for photos :)

    I've heard that the Green Clown Gobies are more shy than the yellow and that has proven true so far with me although they are very new. They are great fish. I'll throw some pics of mine up soon.

    Here's yet another shot of my beloved yellow clown "Primosh". He poses like that whenever he wants food! Adorable fish!

    I have a pretty good-sized birds nest that I am "very hopeful" about. If the clown goby were to host/take up refuge there it would be perfect. It would be directly in front of the tank.
