Yea it does over time as long as you have the proper filtration it should clear up

The cloudy issue will end soon but you would likely face bigger issue with that Diamond Goby in long run if you planning to keep corals in your tank.

Why is that? I thought he was reef safe.The cloudy issue will end soon but you would likely face bigger issue with that Diamond Goby in long run if you planning to keep corals in your tank.

They are reef safe. They just have a tendency to get a little carried away with sand excavation. They may bury frags places in the sand bed. But for the most part I️ would not run a tank with sand without one of these guys.
I love and hate watching mine. He's fun to watch. But I never know what will be buried next; and rocks are not out of the scope of decorating. I've had to dig out a rock flower nem more than once.

Insightful answer loading... please wait.
Mine decorates with frag plugs and empty shells around his borough. I've got a love/hate relationship with him. He wants to spit sand on anything on his side of the tank. He mounds the sand on the other side of the rock his borough hole is on. He will scoop sand from a corner and mound it on the backside of his rock, to the point the bottom gets picked bare and the rockwork is completely buried. Obviously I can't place corals anywhere near his hole. I've got a digi that was there before him that has taken a ton of abuse, but is still hanging on. I spread the sand back with a spatula nightly, but like Sysiphus, he pushes that sand back on his rock during the day.

Haha I cant count haw many time i have to dig out Shrooms, Acans, Zoas
Yea mine made the whole rock work collapse one day while i was at work. I came home and didn't see him. I fed the tank and still no sign. His burrow was collapsed and all of the rocks on that side had fallen. I was watching the tank thinking to myself i had lost another one. All of the sudden i watched the sand where his entrance used to be start to move. I figured the manderain had swam near it. It just kept slowly falling under the rock like a sinkhole. Then i see a massive "Eruption" out of that spot. Sand going everywhere. When the dust settled i peered over their and Poof, out come the little guys head. Literally the saddest, scariest, happiest, funniest moment i have had with my reef.

The firefish have moved into one of his burrows.
