Okay, so it’s been about 10 days and I have a Koumansetta hectori, I was warned about the wild caught gobies not eating. My LFS had this fish returned to them as a CB Koumansetta hectori, we had our suspicions on it not being CB but I took the risk, I have now found this is not a captive bred and isn’t adapting to mysis or brine, what should I try now?

for now he is thriving off of the cyano and the fauna in the sandbed. I love this fish and want it to thrive to its maximum capability in my tank. He is still very fat looking and sifts through the sand every day. Here’s the sand he’s excavated from the rock he lives under:
