Arawana, Goby and the Clownknife are all big boys. I've never see the Arawana chase after anyone, other than feeders and even then there wasnt a heavy effort. The clowknife sometimes gags on large feeders so I doubt it's him. The goby hides out 24/7. I've never actually seen him eat, and that's probably because he's eating his tankmates (or at least those he can fit in his mouth).

It's going to be a real pain in the ass to get this Goby out. The tank is four feet deep. He was out for a minute after I put the blue moon lights out but as soon as I tried to net him, he high tailed it back in the rock caves.

I had a similar problem in my Malawi tank on Friday had to take a big pile of rocks out to catch them :banghead: , you might have to get your swimming shorts and snorkel on and wrestle him out lol

Missed a couple days of feeding on my old spotted sleeper (water cow) tank and came home to one goby with another goby in its mouth,and one with a catfish in his mouth.
