Knight gobies and f8s?

Post by pufferpunk20 »

All right, so possibly stupid question, but I currently have a 60 gallon brackish set up with 2 f8s, a knight goby, and 9 mollies and I'm wondering if the goby would benefit from another goby. I don't have a whole lot of experience with gobies, so I'm not sure how that would go over or even if there's enough room.

So if I do should I go with a male female pair? Is the tank large enough for them?

Yes, try for pairs, you could have 2 pairs & 1 more F8.

You have a decent-sized tank there.
