Do you have room around the LR for the shrimp to make a burrow? I wouldn't think there was enough room in the sand for any goby that actually required sand.

I really like this tank. Im new to SW and i think i read that SW lighting isnt measured in WPG.. But .. do you know how many watts are in the light and how much did it cost you.

Also id love to see some more pics :)

Red thing appears to be some sort of macro

When the rainfordi comes in make sure it eats, they tend to be tricky to get eating frozen, as they tend to go for 'pods, that kind of thing... success with them in small tanks isnt that great.

Setup is looking good though.

Sorry to hear that......They are very sensitive to changes in water parameters and need a long long acclimation period. They are also sensitive to high nitrates so you may want to check that out....You are sure it hasn't just molted? silly quesiton I know.....

I acclimated him over an hour time, and slowly. And my water tested just fine. I thought at first he had molted but then after 3 days of not seeing him Im geussing hes gone. I made sure that things were done right but........:(
