My Pink Spot Shrimp Goby has taken to setting up camp on top of my Blue Snowflake Ployp colony. Not all the time, but maybe a total of an hour a day. Should I be concerned about the polyps, and if so, how should I evict the little bugger?

the pic is broken for me, but are the polyps closed? I think in most cases a perching goby is perfectly fine for most coral.

I wouldn't worry about the polyps at all. I have a goby and a blenny that perch on many corals without issue.

The polyps look great actually. I'm not going to worry about it I guess. My wife thinks it's cute!
