Just curious on what i should do, I had recently gotten a bluespot jawfish and over the night last night i saw him digging his hole and my urchin had climbed into it and now I cant find the urchin. Will he be able to find himself out or should I get him out?

+1 vote take him out

while probably he can get himself out, it will take a lot of effort and he'll not be eating during that time (however long in takes)... since this likely will not be the last time it happens, think you should intervene and help urchin

I've always loved jawfish personalities, and bet your blue spot is beyond gorgeous! Its one of my dream fish for some future tank configuration!
