sand on corals (watchman.)

[bill109]

hello
i have a quick one for you..
my watchman loves to perch on my zoa;s and spits sand all over them.. i cant really shake them out cus they are starting to move to the lr and off the plug. i blown them off so to speak with a wave of the hand to get the sand off but not all of it comes of.. them seem to be diminishing.. my green ones n the back side are dissappearing.. less and less are opening.. and im not sure how to fix it
if anyone has any pointers please please let me know..
thanks for you time.

move the rock up

then the zoas wont open to much and he probally will still go on it?

my diamond goby gets sand on my corals too..but he really keeps the sand nice! all I can say is just bloe it off with a baster.

He may still perch on them if you move them, but i think the sand is causing the zoos not to open more then him perching on them. I have several gobies who perch on my corals but they are doing fine.
