Who here among you would put a yellow clown goby in with some encrusting montiporas and lps? Am I asking for trouble and a fish trap? I know they like to eat sps polyps but is it mainly branching varieties that attract their attention? I have also read about them nipping at acans and duncans. I'd like to add one to my 16 gallon tank but don't want to jeopardise my corals.

I had my one in with LPS of different types and he wasn’t the issue - my blenny munched on LPS & SPS. This guy just seems to perch on Seriatopora species, I doubt they like it but it does keep him off of my other SPS.
