the holes are all realitve to the size fish. as longas the lr is well supported you should not havea problem.

all depends onthe size tank i belive, gobies can be thickle , they may and can be very defensive of their "home" even towards other fish

Buying them in pairs is pretty much up to you. I think you see more personality traits when you see them in pairs.
Also mine have not dug any holes yet, they paired up with a pistol shrim that does all the hole digging.

ive never had a lawnmower, but given the name, i think a lawnmower eats more, but my blenny does eat it, picks it off the wall all day long, me mainly goes for the long strands too, but he isnt a good glass cleaner.
