    Default Whats for dinner then ?

    I caught my Goby swallowing something big any ideas on what it is ?

    I think its a hermit crab, is this possible. As its almost the size of his whole head.

    Yikes, could it be a shed hermit skin perhaps?

    My blue cheek moves rocks and stuff around but has never eaten a hermit and he's huge. Seems kinda strange tbh but my fish surprise me all the time ;)

    Poor little hemit.

    As gilly has said mine used to move small rocks and stuff but it did have a taste for my pair of spotted box fish. Saw him eat 1 and then the other 1 went missing:(

    He didn't last long after eating those, must of been an upset tummy:(
