I got a extra large Pink and Blue Spot Watchman Goby from Aquatics Specialists last week. He is huge and has made a home in the rocks cleaning the sand.
I will try and get a picture soon.

Very nice!

Those gobies have beautiful colors in the right light, if they happen to come out long enough to get a glimpse! My wife's hides in its lair about 99% of the time, but it's always a treat to see it when it comes out.

Mine comes out just when food hits the tank. During the day I can see its head from its cave.

There have been a few times that I was sure ours must have bitten the dust. Like yours, it only comes out when there's food to be found, but otherwise he/she/it is completely out of view. A few times we haven't seen it for a few days, and then we'll see it again. We've had it for at least a year now, but we still think it's a beautiful fish every time it actually comes out far enough to show off its coloration. Hope yours does well!
