I have only had the gobie since saturday and have only seen him sifting sand. That he does very very very well I may add. My tank looks like a dust storm and I have a huge pile of sand at one end where he has made a cave under the rock......he seems happy but I want him to be well fed and happy. I can't seem to get the tang to eat lettuce or seaweed......only frozen mysis or brine laced with spirulina

Anyway, stop hijacking this thread or the moderator will get annoyed
