So I came home to the news that our diamond goby had decided to burry our anemone alive under a rock.
I'm not sure what to do. Should I try and remove all of the rock to attempt a rescue mission or will the nem dig itself out?

Has anyone seen this before? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would gently blow most of the sand away with a turkey baster. However, your diamond goby might just cover him up again. Mine keeps covering a small rock that he doesn't like.

Stupid goby. Mine keeps raining sand all over my nem. I decided to move him to a higher location today to try and rectify the problem. If I were you I'd make a tunnel for the little guy on one side and if you can make a tunnel on the other side to blow water in to make him want to move
