Awe, he looks the same size as those gobies.

that could work but you have to be careful gobys love there meat and might have a go at smaller fish so get them little when your fish are bigger to stop unwanted meals ( im not an expert but it seems right i dont know if im wrong someone will point it out eventualy)

I have one bbg and he is so super cool. I am hoping that I can find some more the last ones that came in were very skinny and I had 2 like that and they died in a day! I also have a Knight Goby. He is cool but very big and really annoying. He steals food and is just a big bully sometimes I have to catch him first and then feed the rest and feed him in the net so everyone else can eat, but I still like him. BTW thats a huge tank do you have any full tank shots?
