red head goby

I found a very small red head goby. He is only about 3/4 inch long. Will he be eaten in my tank? I have two young maroon clowns, coral beauty, blue devil, lawnmower blenny, cleaner shrinp, pepermint shrimp and a few red and blue legged crabs, and one green spotted puffer. The puffer is less tha 3".
The tank is about 6mo old with a light crushed coral bottem and 90+ lbs of live rock. One flower anemonea, and one purple tip anemonea. Its a 90 gal tank. He is very small. I worry for his safty.3

Thank you guy for all the help.

Most goby are quite passive and hardy, I wouldn't expect it to be "eaten" unless it dies or gets stung by the anenome. If you acclimated it correctly it shoud be alright.
