Gives a whole new perspective to showcasing your tank.

Love the barrel-roll the Watchman Goby did

But .... Woah ... that Pistol is doing some major excavation work on your sandbed.

I will watch it if I were you, it may destabilise your rock foundation, or worse, cause it to collapse.

If you are extremely unlucky, the pistol will survive

[KingFish]

Also, unless my eyes are playing tricks on me, you have a real gem in your tank.

We'll wait till more Goby nuts turn up to confirm
