    I have had a pair of watchman gobies for over 5 years and haven't seen this until now, the female has laid a mass of eggs and watching them around the clock, both fish have changed there life patterns and seem to be in the parenting mode, my only question would be, will either parent eat the hatchlings or will they raise them it would be neat if they hatch and some of them survive.:)
