Lawnmower Blenny Safe for Hi Fin Goby?

I have a tiny Hi Fin Red Banded Goby that's maybe 1" long and likes to peak in and out of the rockwork. Just wondering if I add a Sailfin/Lawnmower Blenny, if either of the two fish will collide with each other since both are scoot around on the sand and perch on the rocks. It's a 29g Biocube the only other fish ATM is a Ocellaris Clown. Eventually may add a 4th fish, if the Blenny is safe then he would be #3 to the tank.

 

I would say no. The blenny can get aggressive especially in a small tank.

 

Ty Vinny. My GF really likes the way the mosey about the tank as well as munch on algae. Any suggestions on two more fish I can add to my 29g? Right now it's just the Oc. Clown and the Red Banded Goby. Would like one to be a herbivore/algae eater, and the other something pretty that flashes around the tank and low maintenance.

 

Look into the reef safe Wrasses! You'll love em all Very beautiful, active and wonderful community fishes. My favorite is the McKoskers Wrasse!

 

I agree a wrasse would be a good choice just make sure its a docile one. As far as algae eaters you are really limited with space so I would stick to using a good CUC for that. You could do a Jawfish they are extremely cool!!!8)

 

I actually lost my 6line last week, I think rearraging the rock work and adding a new PH stressed him to the point of no return. I thought he was really pretty except I noticed a huge loss of my pod populations no longer thriving in the DT - so that being said I was going to avoid another 6line. The LFS don't really have many other wrasse except maybe a cleaner wrasse, but I know most get too long and hungry for my 29g Biocube (actually holds around 25g after LR and all equipment in the tank[skimmer, heater, pump, ph's])

 

you could get a royal gramma, they have great color and are peaceful

 

Very pretty fish for sure. Just would conflict with my current Indo-Pacific theme. Although if this fish will play well with others it may be a good addition. Still a little bummed by Vinny's news, would really enjoy watching a Lawnmower Blenny scoot around the tank, but not if it will show signs of aggression and stress out any other fish - I try to keep the peace while underwater

Perhaps another wrasse would be a good solution, I would just have to have one ordered because I would want something other than a 6line or cleaner wrasse, and preferably one that didn't spend all day hunting for pods, I like seeing my pods swim around on my LR, but when my 6line wrasse was in town, they either disappeared or were gobbled up

This one is kinda ugly-cute... stays small, appears non-demanding! (again - i'd still have to order the little pooper)

I just ordered a White Banded Possum Wrasse from HappyCoral.com similar to the above but more colorful
Yes your 6line did gobble up the pods and any other tiny inverts you may have had lol, it's what they do know too that Wrasses are major jumpers so you may wanna check your back chamber for him.

 

Just would like to have more than 2 fish in my tank. I know I'm limited on options if I want to keep my tank stress free and happy... the Royal Gamma might be a good addition as far as beauty but until I watch how they live in a tank setting I just wont know if it's right for my tank. I see a lot of people own Cardinal fish but these seem pretty ordinary in my opinion. Contratary to what Vinny says I may try the Lawnmower blenny after I add a pistol shrimp to help guard my little Hi Fin Red Striped Goby (which btw i have not seen since I added him to the tank lol)
