Hello,
I plan on introducing an engineer goby and a pair of a pistol shrimp and a yellow watchman goby to my 66Gallon / 250L tank. Currently I have no fish which live in the sand. My question is how secure my rockwork should be. Currently the rockwork is somewhat solid my decently sized decorator crab who likes to attempt to move everything is not able to move any of the rock work. My issue is that the rocks are possibly not placed on the glass directly. When i set-up the tank here (which i bought 2nd hand) we moved it with some sand on the bottom placed the rocks on top of this by pushing them into the 1-1.5 inch sand bed. Some weeks after this i added another 1.5 of sand and placed some of the smaller rocks ontop of the sand and did not move the larger rocks. So as of now there is likely a small gab between the sand and the large rocks will this be an issue when the engineer goby starts digging around?
inches of
If so how could I secure my rockwork given that the tank is already established?
Also will the smaller rocks like this be an issue being on top of the sand and should i remove them or burry them in the sand?
Finally should attempt to glue the rocks which are already pretty secure but not glued to eachother which are placed higher in the aquarium to eachother?
Thanks for the help!
