I have a neon blue goby that seems to be sharing a burrow with an engineer goby. The engineer is still in its juvenile form, so maybe the two think they are related (they look kind of similar for right now).

Anyways, thought this was pretty cool.

Very cool. What will their parents think?

LOL; I bet fish are more open minded than us, but you never know. Could these two fish be the aquatic version of Romeo and Juliet?

I wonder what will happen when the engineer changes into its adult form?

The tank has:
1- Flame Angel
1-6 Line Wrasse
1-Neon Goby
1-Engineer Goby

Very peaceful tank. The wrasse and angel share one section of live rock caves and the neon and engineer share a burrow. This isn't constant, as the neon moves all over the tank.
