    I'm thinking of getting a Yellow Watchman or a Diamond Goby. Should I add sand to my normally BB quarantine tank ? I have some PVC fittings in there for shelter.

    Shouldn't all fish be quarantined for 3-4 weeks ?

    go with the ywg. the diamond only eats organisms living in live sand and usually starve in peoples tanks. 6 weeks is the minimum for quarantine. ywg like to hide and jump out of tanks i believe.
