I picked up a nice, but rather small, watchman goby two weeks ago. He was extremely active for the first day, and then I hadn't seen him since... Didn't even come out for feeding. I wasn't too worried at first since I have tons of pods, figured he was making himself a cave and camped out snacking on them...
Well today I decided to try to google and see about how long people found their new Watchman's would hide... Instead I found several forum posts around the web explaining that their Watchman Goby's had managed to go through the overflow slots in people's Nano cubes (which I have) and get stuck in the rear chamber... :? Sure enough - that's where he is.
Problem is... He is in the chamber for the pump (which I have turned off until I can get him out) but he is between the wall and the plastic frame at the bottom, not like I can get to it with a net. It ate the pellets I sent down for him, but I don't think I can even fit a trap in the chamber to trap it...
Any ideas how to get him out? Sorry for the poor picture quality, but he's the small yellow speck on the far right side of the tank in the middle...
