I've been doing some digging on Blue spotted jawfish and I've come across some worrying threads on RC. Apparently, they're prone to dying off from bacterial infections, which is a bit of a concern. That being said, I've also stumbled upon a few success stories, so it's worth doing some more research before making a decision.

Getting them tomorrow, cant wait. Been waiting ages and finally the day has arrived. £260 was a bit steep but they're a pair and they're rare so i guess it's worth it. Got my fingers crossed they settle in ok with my yellow watchman goby.

Just to update you all, I'm picking up the blue spot jawfish tomorrow, cheers for all the advice, will make sure they eat before I bring them home, also will add more sand to the tank, 5" deep, so they can burrow, and will keep an eye on the mag levels, thanks again

Got them today, and they're settling in. One's got a small red ring round its left eye, but apart from that, they're amazing to watch and eating great. Hopefully the eye clears up. Been trying to get some pics, but can't figure out how to upload them here.
