Ya he is hilarious when ever a hermit crab comes near his hole (he has filled every other nook and cranny) he picks up the hermit crab and sends it flying across the tank lol

I was looking for a jaw fish. Ended up with a two eyed goby. I wouldn't mind still getting one though! Very nice!

Ha I love how when ever I come home he has completely redone the tank and made new burrows and new piles of sand

Love it!! Im looking into one so a few questions

Did you put the rocks like directly on the glass then add sand?
How deep is your sand bed?
Are they hard to keep?
What they eat?

Im jealous man

The back rocks are on the bottom but not the two front rocks.

The sand bed is a little under 2 inches.

And they are very difficult to keep. I have the luxury of working at my lfs so when we got him in I got him on to frozen food. Which isn't very hard cause they love to eat. But i got to watch him and fatten him up before I bought him.

They are pretty sensitive to parameters but the biggest thing is they like cold water. They like to be in about 68 degree water.

So they are really a species specific tank kind of fish. I have sexy shrimp in there with him.
