paul b October 22, 2010 Share October 22, 2010 I had to remove a watchman gobi today. I have 4 of these, I don't remember how many years I have them but I got them as babies. These two pictured and one almost the same size and a much smaller one. This pair is spawning like they always are and the large male always chased the smaller male but it never seemed to bother him much. Now the male is much larger than the other male and he never stops chasing him. I have seen him cowering in a corner for the last week but I could not catch him. Today the large male chased him so much that I was able to grab him with my hand because he was practically beat to death and could not hardly swim. I have him in a small tank with some antibiotic because his fins are all torn as is his mouth. I will nurse him back to health and he will live for a while with my burrfish. I hope he doesn't eat him. Then if he recovers fully I will probably give him away. Unfortunately, fish in great health spawn but when they do, they will not tolerate other males and will likk them. So it is a good sign with a bad outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
