What happened to your other 2???
I have one in my 225G...it's a good 5" long, and is ALWAYS sifting
To be completely honest, I have no idea. For awhile we could not keep gobies alive for more than a month or so. Diamonds were constantly dying in our tank. Then we moved on to the Dragon. First one was thriving and then just overnight turned from a healthy goby sifting sand all the time to a sickly goby. Put him in the QT and he lasted a few more days and then just died.
The next one we tried, I think he got stressed with the move to the 155G. At least that's what I'm assuming. Him and a blenny were the only fish that didn't make it during the upgrade.
I was afraid to try anymore gobies, but I love the YWG so I had to have one and was lucky enough to find a mated pair for $15. They've been doing great in the tank, but they're lazy and don't sift sand, not that I expected them to do very much. Since we've had a few months of luck with them, decided it was time to try the Dragon again. First day, got stuck in the overflow, even with the netting on there, but since then, he's a sand sifting machine. He's officially the smallest fish we own, poor little guy.
