Goby in QT

[kfp]

Hi and TIA for your responses. When QTing a sand sifting goby, do you put substrate in the QT?

Sand sifting gobies require substrate. Mine makes his home under a piece of live rock so you'll probably need a couple inches of fine sand plus some rock. If the goby is not eating fish food then you'll have to put it in the display so it can feed from an established sand bed.

Here is a good read on sand sifters and a little about their dens: http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2003-09/hcs3/index.php
