    I've never really been a fan of shrimp gobies but I do like these guys quite a bit and I was wondering if behaviorally they were pretty cryptic? I wouldn'y want it getting lost in my tank, which does have quite a bit of rock. Do they tend to burrow in view of people or move their burrows around?

    They're TINY. You'll hardly ever see/find it.

    Agreeed, imagine geting a $300 designer clownfish that is 1inch and lives in the sand with a shrimp :)
    Perfect fish for a small pico species tank.

    Okay thats what I thought, I guess I'll look at that Griffis or a Declivis instead.

    Yeah, my fav species. So intricate looking but at the same time so "clean" looking, unlike the hybrids, IMO.
