Engineering goby rubbing body on sand.

[Redneck Boats]

Hey all!
Just joined and happy to be here! I have an engineer goby in a quarantine tank and even though there is coppersafe in the water it's in. I tried reading online with no luck as of yet. Thank you all for your Time and help!

I don't own an engineer goby but I imagine that is normal behavior. I know they will dig and burrow.

Oh and welcome

Thank you for the welcome. It just has me concerned cuz he is the only one of two that is doing it and he dosnt burrow like the other one. Thank you none the less for the response!
