The Diamond Watchman Goby is also my favorite and for the same reasons listed in Carmen's post.

How about a Blenny? I have a Bi-color Blenny and he has so much character, I just love him. I find Jawfish have so much personality too, I don't have one YET but will soon I hope.

My YWG lives in a large barnacle with a Blue Gudgeon. They are great pals. The YWG didn't come out very often before the BG moved in with him; now he is out much more often.

Eviota, and the redhead goby... Awesome little guys, but yeah - they tend to get lost in even a 2.5g tank. For some reason, even though I've had a couple, never had the same fondness for the trimma as I did for the eviotas and redheads.

Rainfords and Hector's are great in those 5-20s, but again get lost as you get bigger... Keeping them in the tank and healthy's always been my problem with em.

We have a pair of the spikefin Gobies in the Display RSM at the store. They only come out when the lights are out and I have seen them a few times later at night when doing paperwork. They are really neat as it looks like they hop around on the sand.
