My poor diamond goby is no longer, found him at the back of the tank today as I noticed he didn't come out during feeding time 
I dont know how old he was as he hasn't grown since I had him which was around 8 months. All my other fish where babies when I got them so I have a rough idea of their ages.
Tested my water and everying seems ok.
I know I haven't had him for long but it is so sad when one of you're fish dies.

Diamonds require an immense sand bed and are recommended for big tanks. My guess, since you had him for 8 months, that his food supply might have run out; I wouldn't blame parameters for his death at all if everyone else is doing fine.
