I have a Yellow pearly Jawfish Pair, I have had them for 3 weeks in my QT tank. getting ready to move them to my 60 cube. 24x24x24 . I already have a yellow watchman gobie pair in this tank with a Pistol Shrimp as their Buddy. they are in the middle under all the rocks/tunnels that the pistol shrimp has dug for them. Also have a mated pair of Platinum Clowns who hang out middle to upper of tank. Should I or should I not move these Jawfish to the sixty?? will the Gobies get along with them. The Compatibility chart says they are compatible. Opinion please :confused2:
 
There is a chance that they will get along fine with the YWG, but there may be some issues at first. If you do add them, just be ready to net them out if it doesn't work out.

Thanks Dylan
 
Its a chance my last set up had 2 jawfish and 6 gobies all were fine. But if they need a home I am looking for a pair. Also ill take some macro next time you trim it back

I had to get 4 to get 2 to pair up, these two are inseparable , I will try it this weekend after I move a lot more smaller rubble
pieces in the tank for them:yes:
 
You are making me want some jaw fish. I've always liked them, but never had a tank that they'd be compatible in. I could probably put a pair in the 65 with no issues.
 
So far guys I got 4 from Liveaquaria.com, I lost 1 after 2 days. Acclimation was done correctly with air stones in all buckets , drip method, lights out in the QT tank for 2 days . Plenty of rubble in the Qt tank. @ paired and love each other. I have not seen the odd guy out yet?? But i have not moved their rocks/dens . I think i will move them Saturday to the 60 cube. Crossing my fingers for luck. I would one day love to setup a 100 gallon long tank for Jawfish only. James Cook is the man that told me how to pair them . James is an Awesome breeder with quality fish. had the fish for 3-1/2 weeks now
