Tankmates for Bumblebee goby

[Quixotic]

Intend to use this cube as my Cherry tank once I'd gotten my Cherry Batallion... [Intend to place in 3 endlers also after I'd collected from a kind bro in here too...]

The cherry shrimps should be fast enough, but given half a chance, the Bumblebee gobies will gladly appreciate them as snacks, especially newly born shrimplets.

In case you haven't found out, there are three recommended rules to observe when keeping Bumblebee gobies. Firstly, they will take live and/or frozen food only. Secondly, they cannot compete with very active fish at feeding time. Finally, Bumblebee gobies need good filtration and plenty of oxygen.

Had to seperate my 2 pieces of Bumblebee Gobies today as they were fighting (had personally observed a few times during feeding of BWs...). The worst case was today when I noticed that one of it had its tail torn & ripped from the fight (they seems to be bumping at each others body...)

Sigh! Thought that they are supposed to be gentle fish in a tank... [Now staying with my Goldfishes, anyone with bad experiences??]

It shouldn't be a surprise. It's the food chain, crustaceans make up part of diet for many fishes in the wild.

These fishes are territorial, so having some hiding places and large enough tank helps. These territorial disputes don't cause any real harm. Torn fins are really normal (they will grow back in time to come).

I hope I haven't written too late to find out that the Goldfishes have gobbled them up. Never put fish small enough to fit in the mouth of the Goldfish with them.
