I've got 2 Fancy Male Guppies, 3 Gold White Cloud Minnows, and 4 Bumble Bee Gobies. I know that Bumble Bee Gobies are carnivorous, but right now they are maybe half an inch. I got 3 White Clouds since they are a schooling fish, so they feel more comfortable...Is this safe? If not what can I do.

well so far so good.
even if bumblebee gobies are carnivores, their small size won't let 'em hurt yur other fish.
white clouds are shoaling species. i think you may need just a bit more, they'll have to be at least 5 or more fish in a shoal.
if you still want to keep their numbers like that, put on plants and rocks so that they can retreat and hide when they're scared...
good luck

The gobies won't grow big enough to eat your fish. I'd suggest to add a couple more Minnows because they are a schooling fish.

Sounds like a nice little set up. Monitor your ammonia and nitrite, do waterchanges every couple of weeks or so, and add some rock salt for the gobies if they start acting sick or stop eating.

Just use the aquarium silicone sealant. That works very well, and does not harm fish. I will sometimes use that to glue rocks, or decorations to surfaces that my fish would otherwise play with and relocate. You can pick it up at Walmart, or Petsmart.

How big is the tank? 3 White Clouds is not a school.

That shouldn't be a problem at all. The gobies won't get large enough to eat those other fish.

why does this remind me of a new take start!! I am not sure how big your aquarium is...but if it is a 10 gallon and the tank has been up less than 6 weeks....stop now....till your tank is cycled!!!!
the fish that you have chosen should get along nicely
