Not sure he’ll settle down he’s been in tank almost 3 months and it is a constant battle with me blowing off rock and corals and leveling sand bed and him digging and piling up sand in just a couple of hrs.
are you referring to an orange spotted shrimp goby or a diamond goby? Both have spots. It sounds like your are referring to a diamond goby. They are digging machines and will pile sand and dig everywhere whenever they want. I have two of them. As far as catching it, a trap would not work due to it doesnt really chase food. The only time mine would be catchable is when they are frightened, they tend to leave the bottom and head to the top of the water column in preparation to jump.
how deep is the sand? maybe theres not enough.
the sand bed is 2-3 inches deep.
can it fully burrow? are you sure its not just shifting sand?
Aren't orange spots watchman gobies?
Orange spots wont do what hes describing, im positive he was told and it was labeled as an orange spot goby, but he was sold a diamond goby. Both have very prominent orange spots
Makes sense
No he’s a white with orange spots. Yea he’s a diamond.
Orange spots can also refer to orange/spotted shrimp/prawn/watchman gobies who do pair with pistols
