hey laurie to get my pistol out what i do is lay a bunch of rubble right next to their den then push sand into his lair ....mine goes right into clean mode and pushes the sand out but with the rubble blocking the hole he has to literally come out and push or pick up the rubble and move it.
mine was quite secluded at first but after me feeding him so many times hes out and about all the time now never leaves his den but he comes out into the open about 6 inches.
my pistol hosts 2 gobys an orange spot and a red striped goby its usually the red who has him but once in a while he will leave and then the orange moves on in.....the red always comes back because hes more aggressive
