I just bought a diamond Goby, and he is digging holes everywhere. Is this going to continue, or will he find a good shot and settle in. My tank is looking like a constant dust storm.

That's my worry I have never owned on but thinking about one I would say this is what he is going to doI just bought a diamond Goby, and he is digging holes everywhere. Is this going to continue, or will he find a good shot and settle in. My tank is looking like a constant dust storm.
This is what I get for buying a fish on an impulse. I told the lady at my LFS that I wanted a sand sifter, and this is what she recommend. I should know better then to listen to these people.That's my worry I have never owned on but thinking about one I would say this is what he is going to do
Thanks, that's encouraging. I guess I'll give him a couple months and see what he does.My Diamond Goby was a maniac for the first 6 months. The amount of sand that guy relocated every day was huge! At this point (just over a year in my DT) he is pretty calm. There's an area behind/below the rocks that he stays within. He still sifts sand, just not very much. He eats what the others eat, grabbing food from the water column, or picking up what's left on the sand.
Yes. He seems to do it on purpose because I'll relocate it and find it covered or knocked over 6 hrs laterI want to ask all of you guy's that have one are they bad about covering your coral?
Yep but the only coral that i had on the sandbed is my zoas and i moved them up on a rock.I want to ask all of you guy's that have one are they bad about covering your coral?
Yes. Keeping corals on the sand can be a challenge, especially frags. I've found that securing them to smaller peices of rock and burying in the sand work well.I want to ask all of you guy's that have one are they bad about covering your coral?
It's not her fault you didn't do your research. You should have looked on the Internet before you went to the pet store. A sandsifter will sift sand.I don't know what you thought you would get asking for one. I'm sorry if I sound abrupt but can't let you blame someone else for your bad decisions .This is what I get for buying a fish on an impulse.
