Delsol650, Do you know where I can get a pair of those?

These babies... I got mine from reefhotspot, I asked specifically for a mated pair ( they couldn't guarantee but they got it right )..

I am considering going all fairy wrasses and may have to move my mated pair and anthias as well... don't know yet and torn...

I don't why my tank can't handle sandsifting gobies. I had Diamond Goby and Sleeper Gold Head Goby but they don't last that long in my tank. They keep getting thinner and wasted away. I was thinking of getting a pair of dragon gobies, I was told that they are much hardy.

hm, how much substrate do you have? and how fine is it?

i accidentally oversubstrated my own.. 3-5 inches...

for some odd reason, my goby's doing pretty well.... but driving me nuts with the amount of sandshifting it's doing. it's creating huge caverns underneath my rocks.. literally shifting my entire landscape.. and moving my sand all over the place... i have hills, where there should be valleys and valleys where it should be solid flat...

as for hardy...

lawnmower benny, fire dartfish and the dang sandshifting goby is about the hardiest fish i've ever seen. i have no clue why they're surviving...

I feed my gobies daily with mini krill, pellets, cyclopeeze granuals, frozen food... I mix it up so they don't get used to one type of food... my sand was 3 1/2 all around but now 5", 4", 3" and 2" at other places...

They WILL reorganize your livesand to what they want.. now they have it to where they like it and don't move as much only sifting now...

Delsol,

So great to see the fish are happy and doing well. Really, really happy to hear that. Awesome.

We've just had some spawning events in our coral tanks and I think I've showed off our baby torches and hammers to every customer that has walked in.

Best Regards,
Max
