    Has anyone ever had a blue line goby? My LFS has one that I would love to have. He is really cute, but tiny. They told me it would not be a good idea because of my yellow-tail damsel and the fact that the goby is hard to feed in my 47G tank. Apparently these gobies belong to very small nano tanks. Any ideas?

    Thanks.

    I wouldn't worry about feeding it. I would worry about ever seeing it in a large tank. Most damsels are fairly aggressive to new inhabitants. How has your damsel behaved in the past to new fish?

    Thanks for the quick reply inwall. My damsel has been pretty civil so far, but all the othe fish I have are much bigger than this tiny goby. I have two false clowns, a spotted-tail blenny, a midas blenny, and a green clown goby. What is cool about this goby is how he hangs in a vertical position in the water column.
