    I have a goby and I don't know what he likes any sinking food that they actually eat? And don't spit out

    Yes, but my Lfs said brine shrimp didn't have much nutrience in it. And he does eat it but little pieces my other fish get most of it by the time it gets to the bottom. I tryed simking marine pellets but like the sand it just comes out of his gills, if there's any sinking food that they like that would be better : )
    Thanks

    Aw man, that is the craps. These things happen. Just pick him out and move on...I'm sure he is out already. Wait until you find a $59 fairy wrasse you waited a month to get on your floor. Wild fish just aren't used to our weird filter setups.
