I have a pistol shrimp/goby combo in my tank. He takes/flips over/tilts ANYTHING I leave on the sandbed. He's moved coral glued to baseball sized rocks, the little guy is an engineer. He flips rocks completely over, and my LPS really doesn't like that. I think he'd be impossible to catch (he uses the PVC I used to support my rock structure together to escape). He buried a 3 headed lobo while I was gone for 4 days and I've had to nurse the thing back to health. Short of glueing everything down and just using the light intensity to adjust the lighting - is there anything I can do?

He's doing what comes naturally. In a 25 gallon tank, the whole sandbed is going to be his territory. So, the simple answer is, don't put anything on the sandbed you don't want him to tunnel under, attempt to move, and possibly bury. All corals need to be placed on large rocks.
