For a 125g, can I have 2 of these or it has to be just 1?

I would say NO. :twocents:The Diamond Watchman Goby is also commonly referred to as the Pretty Prawn, Maiden, Orange Spotted Diamond, Orange-dashed, or Orangespotted Sleeper Goby. It was first discovered in the Indo-Pacific Ocean in 1956 by Tomiyama. The head and body are white with orange spots. It is a very timid fish that makes a great addition to the reef tank because of its longevity. It should be housed in a 50 gallon or larger aquarium with live sand as the substrate, and an attached populated refugium. The Diamond Watchman Goby uses shallow burrows in the substrate as refuge, keeping the substrate well oxygenated. It rarely becomes aggressive towards other fish, but is territorial, and will fight with its own kind unless they are a mated pair.
The Diamond Watchman Goby feeds off the bottom as it sifts through the sand. Its diet should include a variety of live and frozen brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, live black worms, and prepared foods for carnivores. It should be fed frequently.
... unless you DRASTICALLY overfeed the tank every day.
The blue dot is like $150. No way man! lol. The yellow headed one is more reasonable for like $25. Never thought of getting a Jawfish though.
If you get two different sexes, then yes...if not then no... Although it may be difficult to tell the difference. If you want two sand shifters, get a diamond goby and a bullet goby, they should do fine together.
