    I was reading not to add a Goby and a Blenny if they look like each other.

    Is there enough difference between these 2 that they will cohabitate?

    What size tank? The goby will be more territorial then the Blenny, especially around its den.

    I wouldn't.Blennies for the most part are much more aggresive then Gobies.Since they inhabit the same zone in the tank it can lead to trouble IME.
