Unfortunately the newly established goby has passed away as of an hour ago. When my son came home from school and cleaned his air pump out the little guy was stuck there. Been dead betwen 4-6 hours. was already skinny and hasn't properly taken to food. The larger goby wasn't making things better for him. Next time, will take out current goby and place back in after the newest settles.
