whats up fellow reefers just wondering if anyone else has/had experience with a Convict Blenny/Engineer Goby (Pholidichthys leucotaenia). just tring to figure out how big they get, I read on the internet that they can get a big as 8inch long. but not sure if any can give me any info, just want to make sure I keep him happy in my tank(40B) I have had it for a good while ever since I started my first saltwater tank(a lil over 2years)..but he was small at the time, he eat like a pig so I know its a happy pig(eats pellets/flakes/frozen)!! just don't want him to get to big for my tank. I know I will upgrade later in time to a bigger tank but not anytime soon.. here are some pictures of him.. any info will help thanks

yupi know what your talking about...lol I really cant have anything on the sandbed because the next day it will be covered in sand...lol I really don't want to get rid of the guy but I guess if it keeps happening it will be something I gotta think about...lol unless I give him his own tank...lol I should have had made some tunnels for him with pvc and then added the sand on top but never thought about it till after..lol
