My lawn mower blenny bullys my Dimond watchmen goby in my 40 gallon tank i dont wanna get rid of any of them but i dont want my blenny to kill my goby

I just got a watchmen goby and my lawn mower blenny just picked on him he killed a 2 spoted goby in the past and thought a bigger one would help so we wouldn't pick on him what should I do? I don't wanna get rid of them but if I have too I will.

Try an acclimation box

Don't get fish that will compete for a similar niche.

I agree with both posts above. Try putting the bully into an in tank acclimation box for a few days to a week, then reintroduce it back into the tank. If it's still a bully, unfortunately you may have to return it.

Sounds like typical LMB behavior to me. Make sure if you isolate it you feed it nori or algae wafers.
