Has anyone with a Diamond Goby experienced it making you water "lightly cloudy" as it shifts sand? Does this calm down as he shifts the sand a few times?
Why is that? I thought he was reef safe.The cloudy issue will end soon but you would likely face bigger issue with that Diamond Goby in long run if you planning to keep corals in your tank.

They are reef safe. They just have a tendency to get a little carried away with sand excavation. They may bury frags places in the sand bed. But for the most part I️ would not run a tank with sand without one of these guys.
hehehe read all above replies you would get the ideaWhy is that? I thought he was reef safe.
Haha I cant count haw many time i have to dig out Shrooms, Acans, ZoasI love and hate watching mine. He's fun to watch. But I never know what will be buried next; and rocks are not out of the scope of decorating. I've had to dig out a rock flower nem more than once.
Mine decorates with frag plugs and empty shells around his borough. I've got a love/hate relationship with him. He wants to spit sand on anything on his side of the tank. He mounds the sand on the other side of the rock his borough hole is on. He will scoop sand from a corner and mound it on the backside of his rock, to the point the bottom gets picked bare and the rockwork is completely buried. Obviously I can't place corals anywhere near his hole. I've got a digi that was there before him that has taken a ton of abuse, but is still hanging on. I spread the sand back with a spatula nightly, but like Sysiphus, he pushes that sand back on his rock during the day.
