i've read these guys lay their eggs on the underside of acro branches.

would a single one be ok in a tank with some sps? they'll only lay eggs if in a pair, correct?

Watch for polyp extension now and then when you get the gobie, I had two yellows that pretty much terrorized every single sps in my tank, at least they where easy to catch at night (remove the acro colony they sleep on). I saw them peeling flesh and picking at the polyps, I was like ohhh!! #@#%# there goes my $$$$. Killed a milli and a birdnest.

I have two, and they dont mess w/ the sps. They just perch in it sometimes.
