Well i came across 2 (of what appeared to be) gobies mixed in with some loaches at my LFS. They were not labeled but i took them home anyways. I put them in my 29g "holding" tank. They cling to the glass and kind of "hop" around the bottom. I have a 3" green severum in there and it would chase them around. It seems to be the manner of that severum to act aggressivley towards other fish for a few days and then stop. Well anyways, the "gobies" seemed to be doing good until i find one decapitated a few days later, in the mouth of the severum. There is no sign of the second goby but after a week of not appearing i assumed the worst. I did 2 water changes/gravel vacs and still no sign of it. But then today, im doing another gravel vac and to my amazement, the second "goby" swims out from under a rock. I am uploading pics now in hopes someone can identify it.

For some reason my pictures are showing up smaller than usual. I think photobucket reduced the max size or something. I will post them for now but im going to try to find another hosting service. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v320/lunker101/CIMG0928.jpg
