    I saw some really nice ones and wanted to get one but i wanted to know if these would kill off your sand bed. I read sand sifting gobies like the gold head can deplete a sand bed quickly,then starve. I know the blue spot eats prepared foods but it also sifts. I would like it to stir the sand bed but not kill it. help please. :confused:

    my orange spotted watchman doesnt seem to sift the sand bed that often, at least from what i see. it mostly eats the mysis shrimp i add.

    ok, that's good to hear. you know if that's the general behavior or just yours?
