Well if it's BB, they HAVE NO CHOICE but to hide in the rock crevices. I'm sure they'll 'make do,' but I wouldnt go so far as to say they're 100% happy.

They're used to sand in their natural environment. I think they should be provided with sand in a captive environment.

True that's like putting seahorse in a tank with nothing to branch on to.Sure they might live but are they happy.

You probably noticed your goby sifting the sand to get algae and the micro-organisms it needs.

IMO you should remove it and place it in an environment that suits it needs.
