When was the last time you tested the water? I would test the water, and if it comes back normal don't stress out. You just added a fish recently, right? It is possible that they are hiding to adjust to the new addition. Now, if the water parameters show ammonia then I would be concerned. If ammonia is present, it is possible that the fish is decaying. This would be the time to prep water for a water change.

it doesnt have it now and it just cant go away in 2 days now can it im pretty sure
LOL, just because you don't see it doesn't mean it's not there.
Part of ich's cycle, especially with healthy fish, is that it will seem to go away, pop up again, go away, etc.
If it was in your tank and you didn't treat, it is still there. Like my tank, I know it's there, but in just one week, none of my fish show signs of it anymore, but I KNOW it's there. I haven't treated.

You really should disassemble your filter intake and if it is the goby remove it. Leaving it in there will pollute your tank.

For the fish to get sucked in, there must be some type of an intake so water can get from the tank to the filter. In most filtration systems, these just pop loose for cleaning and maintenence.

The biocube filter should be too small for the goby to get in, but then again, I had one get inside a powerhead that had a stocking cover on it.
That filter is easy to get apart, at least the majority of it comes apart easily. You can look up instructions on how to clean them online.
