He's spitting on my trachy lobo derasa and mostly on my sun coral and gorg. There is only one place to keep them and when I come home everyday they are under a mountain of sand.

They are really neat fish, but I had the same problem. They are a piece of work, buried everything....lol. Loved mine to pieces though

I finally got rid of mine becuase he would also undermine stuff on the sand bed and tip them over or end up burying them.

Yeah, there's not much you can do about them covering everything with sand. It's just their nature. I have a pair that I wouldn't trade for the world even though the sand layout changes each day. I've tried my best to keep corals up a bit higher than I'd like and don't seem to have any issues now. They are cool fish and are fun to watch. My cats find them to be extremely entertaining. It's the only fish they follow around and try to bat at. They have yet to get bored of them even after a year of having the fish.
