Goby vs. Snail

[Humblefish]

So, I knocked a pretty large Astraea snail off the acrylic while cleaning just now. He hits the sand, but before I can flip him back right side my Pink Spot Watchman Goby comes out of his hole and drags the snail back into this lair.

What!? I've never seen a goby do this before. Hopefully the goby isn't dragging my snails off for dinner (just getting ready to place a snail order too.)

Got this answer on another forum; it makes sense.

Need to get that goby some rubble. He's using the shell to secure/reinforce his lair.

Scavenger yes, bringer of death I've not heard of though.

I've had my goby move small snails but only if they were on the sand bed in front of his home.

I have a pink spot old grumpy I call him anyways any passing snail or hermit crab he grabs and slowly backs into his bat cave like nobody just saw the crime he just did lol most make it out fine at some point it seems so not sure what his intentions are to begin with
