Are Dragon Gobies ok with African Cichlids and a Moray eel?

The African Rift Valley Lakes are freshwater; they are not brackish water. They all drain via rivers which are also freshwater (obviously). Example, Lake Tanganika, the largest and most alkaline of the rift valley lakes and the second deepest lake on the planet, is part of the Congo River basin and supplies the water to the Congo River via the Lukuga River. The Congo River is not brackish, it is absolutely completely freshwater containing no sodium salt.

There is a vast difference between "salt" as in brackish and sea water, and the "salts" that provide the alkalinity to the freshwater rift lakes.

Dragon gobies are very peaceful fish despite their look. They are shy and like moving food. I had one in a tank with tetras and mollies and they out-competed it for food. I was very upset when it started to freak out (swimming rapidly up and down the tank walls) and then died within an hour (water parms were normal). I had never seen it eat, as I had read it was a nocturnal feeder, so I dropped sinking pellets in after I fed flakes to the other fish and turned the lights off. This fish does better in its own tank with a fine sand substrate and caves, as it likes to dig and hide.
