I have numerous pockets and holes in the sand, crushed coral mix at the bottom of my tank. Today, for the first time ever, I saw about half inch of a critter's head. It is black, one eye on each side of the head and had a blue ring around the head just behind the eyes. It had a tiny mouth much like an ell might but not pointy like a Moray. The head and snout appeared round. It looked up to me then ducked quickly down into it's hole. The body is about half the diameter of a common wooden pencil. It poked up several times but would duck down each time I moved to take a closer look.

Help. What is it?

Mystery solved. Set a trap borrowed from a friend. Don't know how but it is an Engineer Goby. Could a fertilized egg stock to a purchased coral be possible?
