    Flesh coming off plate coral. What to do now?

    The flesh is coming off of the bottom of my plate coral. My wife says she's seen our diamond goby, which we recently added, picking at and underneath the coral. I can tell from the shifted sand that the goby has been removing sand from underneath and around the coral. Any advice? Will the flesh...

I plan to have a pair of clownfish, a valentini puffer, a falco hawkfish, and a diamond goby. My friend advised that I should add the fish...

    Is this normal Diamond Goby behavior?

    I had this Diamond Goby for a few months now, he loves to hide shells and make holes everywhere. This evening I saw that my kenya tree coral was missing from it’s usual spot. I looked around and saw that the Goby moved the whole coral into it’s hole. It literally moved the whole rock it was...

    Haven’t seen new diamond goby since I added it 3 days ago. At what point should I be worried?

    About 3 days ago I added a diamond goby to my tank. I don’t have much experience with them myself but from what I can gather it seems like it’s not unusual to not see them for a while after they are added to a tank. My question is at what point should I be concerned? I think I know what rock...

    Diamond Goby to help with dinos?

    So I am experiencing a bit of a dino problem on my sand bed. I have experienced dinos before but this time they are not nearly as bad as they were, previously they took over all the rocks, sand and basically the whole tank. Now they are back but only in patches on the sand bed. I have had...

    Hello, I have a diamond goby and he doing really well sifting through all the sand and keeping it nice and clean.

    Diamond Goby alternatives

    Hello everyone! I just started a semi-new reef tank (fully cycled, brimming with pods, low nutrient, etc.) in a 35 gallon peninsula. I adore the diamond goby, and hate having to suck up pellets on a nearly bi-daily basis. I would want to add more invertebrates but I'm keeping a flame hawk in...
