My Diamond Goby was very active, sifted sand around the entire tank (Reefer170), he also built several burrows, and did indeed make a mess of low rockwork and corals with all of his sand movement. I even saw him pick up and move frags (and hermits, and snails) which was more amusing than annoying.
Then I watched him literally devour my baby Mandarin Dragonet the second I dropped him into the tank. Was not expecting that at all. The next day the diamond goby jumped out of the tank, sadly. Odd since he was never very skittish and I never saw him move above the lower third.
Anyway, that's my story - highs, lows, drama. Can't say I recommend him but he was certainly a character. RIP.
Edit - Major thread resurrection, did not see the age!
