Default FIRST time ever

ive had my engineer gobies for almost 3 years and ive only ever seen there heads out to eat this morning 1 came out completely for about 15 min i havent seen the whole fish since i put them in as 6 inch young ones. hes about 14 inches long and a very thick body. he stayed on the right side of the tank im hoping this wasnt a 1 time deal if he starts comming out maby both will. talk about a shy fish 3 years to finally show himself. im glad i FINALLY got to see at least one of them
