MrZ2u Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Anyone have any experience with the Diamond Watchman Goby? I got one thinking it would be good to keep the sand turned over a little and this dude has become a nuisance. He keep the sand turned over alright. Turns over and covers up corals and builds piles around larger rocks. Wondering if he will settle down or is this just normal. If the latter I gotta get him out cause I am tired of cleaning the sand off everything with a turkey baster every other day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+BobcatReefer Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 That's what they do man! Exactly why I always have one - I can't stand dirty sand. You have a much smaller tank though, so he may be too much for that size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mFrame Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Yep, that's what they do and why I ultimately got rid of mine. You can't have any corals on the sandbed with these guys, they'll constantly cover them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon Reefer Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Yeah you may have to get him out and I like the big snails Of course I have big corals They will push frags around on the sand bed. In a 25 I'd try a tiger snail and see how you like him. If your sand stays dirty you could add another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renman303 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I could use one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrZ2u Posted June 8, 2017 Author Share Posted June 8, 2017 I took the little dude back and got store credit. It was a 2-3x daily task to clean up after him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
