    My new goby who i have had for about 5 days now, and it has not attempted to make a burrow at all..My params are amazing, things are already starting to grow.

    What could be making this guy not want to burrow? all my other gobies burrow in the first-2nd day.

    I'm pretty sure they don't burrow, but rather live in a burrow made by the shrimp they're paired with.

    I'm interested in this as well :) Will a Randall's goby decimate pod populations?
