I have 3 yellow headed jaswfish I love them they are so entertaining. The problem is the largest one has changed his habits. He gets it in his head that he should dig for gold, (special rock) . I just though if he vacationed in one my other tanks perhaps he would stop this gold search. LOL I have worked it out to having all corals on a rock. I mess his front lawn up to keep him busy. They are very busy fish. I think he gets bored and just needs to dig so I have been giving him more to do. I would recommend a a jawfish, they are comedians.
