Figure 8 With Bumblebee Gobies?

[Ripley]

I was wondering would a Figure 8 puffer be ok with my Bumblebee gobies? If not is there any other tankmates that would be good with them?

BBG's are usually fine with Figure 8's.

I had another idea last night for the tank. I was wondering if Halfbeaks would be ok with the BBG's? Obviously minus the figure 8 I mean.

Halfbeaks should be OK, do you know what species however?

Been there, done this. It works fine. Halfbeaks are great with anything that stays at the bottom of the tank. Right now I have a spare Dermogenys female living in a 10 gallon tank with about a hundred cherry shrimp. If she ever tries to eat those baby shrimps, there's little evidence it has any impact on their population! By contrast, any small food item at the top of the tank, like a housefly, is dinner.

Thanks for the info. Well now I guess I would like to get some advice about Halfbeaks.
