They hardly swim about. If you can sacrifice the water volume for their required deep sandbed, go for it. If you have a Biocube, go for it...
I can see it now... maybe use something like a short 6" pvc pipe filled with sand it can burrow and keep the rest of the bottom as a thin layer. then place rocks around to hide the pipe and make it natural looking. Add a weed-like coral like starpolyp and voila! a jawfish hobbit-esque-hole.

Seems like it would be cool...they spend most of their life inside their hole, or hovering just above so a smaller jawfish might work in a 14g.
