Where is My Hi Fin Red Banded Goby

[Cibo]

I have a 6 gal with a small Hi Fin Red Banded Goby the fish is great from day one the fish made him self at home I bought him to keep the pistol shrimp company well that didnt work he made friends with a small pepermint shrimp, my point is I liked the fish so much I bought one for my 24gal reef as soon as i put him in he went to the back wall, and remained there to the light when out then the light went out and I have not seen him again its been 48hrs, how long before I wright him off or could he just be hideing out if it is how long before they come out.

I tryed mysis shrimp any othere ideas???

Yeah i got myself a teensy flaming prawn goby and i haven't seen him since i got him 3 weeks ago, unless i sit there looking inside my rockwork for an hour.

Just a luck of the draw with these small gobies. When i asked about the flaming prawn why it stayed hidden i was told it must have ALOT of stuff to eat in there, which is why he isn't coming out, and quite happy inside feeding off whatever is crawling in there.

Agreed! I hate lawnmower blenny. They forced my other similar shaped fish to jump out of the tank. So they are now banded to the tank "The Rock" named after the famous prison and stay with all other MR members' rejects such as damsels, pseudochromis, killer crabs .....
