Johnson Thu, 06 Aug 2009 20:50:41 +0000 http://aquadaily.com/?p=390#comment-497 My son and I recently bought a Black Clown Goby. I was a little unsure how well it would do, but we've had it for two weeks and it eats like a pig. It is in a small 26 gal tank that includes 2 large true perk Clownfish a Blue Damsel, a Yellow Watchman Goby and a Green Chromis. Its the first marine tank for my son so there are no large or aggressive fish in the mix. He eats everything I put in for the other fish. So far it is hardy and swims up to the front glass at feeding time with the rest of the fish. When we first put it in the tank, the Clownfish at first took notice, but did not seem to mind him at all after a few minutes. The rest of the fish pretty much ignore him. I was a little worried about the Damsel, but even he leaves him alone. He is a very cute and friendly little fish, He was in a tank with other Black Clown Gobies, We are going to get a second one this weekend. Black are not as common as the green and yellow types, these were the first I've seen and I 've had marine tanks for 30 years. If you get a chance to get a black one I think you will be surprised at how easy it will make its self at home in a peaceful tank. My son and I recently bought a Black Clown Goby.
