Do these need sand

[The Ugly Phase]

I haven't kept that particular species, but I've kept a lot of bar gobies. Their ideal hiding spot is a burrow under a rock, so I'm sure they would appreciate sand. Whether it's needed I'm not sure though. They may do fine just hiding under a rock. I'd use sand, given the option.

cheers hopefully some 1 else chimes in that has kept them i done a little bit research and says they go into rock crevases (how to spell xD) but i have no sand and don't want to get a fish that requires it

I had blue grudgeon gobies and sand is probably necessary. I had sand.

Yup, a sand bed is normal for this fish.
Will hide and burrow for safety.
I’d provide that for his comfort.
