bumble bee gobies do not do well in community tanks. And they like hard alkeline waters, your angels, bettas, rams, and xrays (im assuming there are xray tetras) will not do good in these conditions. and preferably light brackish waters, not at all acceptable for your current tank. BBG's will be eaten my yours angels and your bettas fins will be nipped, and the betta may pick off a few here and there. If you want BBG's you must have a diferent aquarium for them.

i hope you eventually set up a brackish tank, i find them a lot more interesting than Freshwater. There are tons of oddball fish and brackish tanks always look awesome when planted (well if you dont have alagae they look good!). I hope you read up on them, i think youll find them quite fun!
