lovely as they are, they keep disappearing on me!!!
ok so i bought a blue cheek goby (golden head goby, whatever you want to call it) maybe about a month ago and a couple days in and he disappears. i look everywhere, from under the sand and rocks to outside the tank to the opposite side of the room, and NOTHING. it's like he vanished into thin air. i dismissed the fact that it went missing and bought another goby, this time an orange spotted one because they stay on the sand more and sift more actively. and for a week or so it was fine and even eating my frozen food. and yesterday, what do you know, it disappears again. i checked everywhere again, under sand, rocks, filter, outside the tank, floor, windows, cooking pans and pots , etc. and nothing.
at first i thought maybe my snowflake moray ate the blue cheek goby because it was quite small, but after i bought the orange spotted goby (a pretty big one too), i ruled this theory out because my moray is pretty small too (maybe about a little thicker than a regular pencil) and couldn't stuff the goby in its mouth.
so what happened to them? any theories? similar stories?
my tank is a 30 us gal with lr, cleaner wrasse, bicolour blenny, and a snowflake moray eel. oh and some softies (though i doubt xenias, mushrooms, zoas, and a kenya tree was the cause of goby disappearances
