Dragon goby issues

[badstorm48]

So I got a dragon goby on Friday and he has done a good job sifting the sand but I'm getting so frustrated with him coving up my corals that sit at the bottom of the tank. Will this ever end and he'll stop doing that or will he always cover up my corals? I have some really nice chalices and spas and I'm scared he's going to kill them because the keep getting covered up. Any suggestions? Should he stay or should he go?

It won't ever stop unfortunately.

You could try moving the coral off the sandbed, but ultimately you may have to get rid of him. I'd try a sand conch out if you want something to help stir up the sandbed.

^Agreed. This is what they do. It will not stop.

Yeah I just wanted to see other people's experiences to see how it will go, but I may just have to get rid of him I don't want to lose any corals because of it.
