I want to get a goby

[TYPO]

I have a 10g that is currently being used by 2 bettas and a few guppies. i now have homes for the guppies, and i can move the bettas to get some fish for the 10g. I have my eye on bumblebee gobies. what can you tell me about them? from a more personal experiance point of view than websites... ya know?

edit: i also read you can and cant keep them with other brackish fish.. so what is it?!?!

Bumblebee Gobies are brackish and they need a salinity level of at least 1.005. They can be kept with other fish. I have done so many times in the past. I have kept them in with Mollies, Glassfish, Guppies, and some small Monos. They love frozen foods, I never got mine to accept any kind of dry foods. They can be territorial with one another so many sight blockers via rocks, wood, etc should be used if keeping more than one is desired. They are pretty easy to take care of so you should have no problem with them. Anyway, hope this helps.
