Can you mix gobies? Need advice

I am new to saltwater and I am wondering if I can mix gobies?

My set up is:
Fluval Osaka 260L (70g)
100 lbs of live sand
70 lbs of live rock
Fluval 406 canister filter (in process of getting a sump)
2 hydro koralia 1400 powerheads

Current livestock:
2 true perculas
1 blue/green chromis
1 lawnmower blenny
2 skunk cleaner shrimp
4 turbo snails
4 electric blue hermit crabs

I want to add some sort of shrimp with a pistol shrimp. Would this work?
Would I be able to add any other gobies? Or would they fight?

Liveaquaria.com has them broken down into 3 categories
- sand sifter gobies
- shrimp gobies
- small gobies

Would I be able to add one goby from the shrimp goby section and one from sand shifting without having problems?

Help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Well each fish is different and each species is different but if you look and they're peaceful...your tank is certainly large enough to have a couple gobies just fine. I don't see why that would be a problem.
 
Yes, you can mix them. The more different they look from each other, the better the chance they will get along.
