More funny stories from Matt's Tank

Two hilarious things... saw both of them tonight and just had to post. I love when I see stuff like this in my tnak.

So first of all, this new green goby has become my favorite fish to watch. He's just cool and funny. I'm not sure if he's "schooling" with the clown fish or what... but he is starting to "hang out" with and around them a lot. He's even been laying on the mushroom that they host in just like they do. They don't even seem to mind... I thought they would be pissed! Tonight he has been sitting by one of the mushrooms and keeps knocking this blue legged hermit crab down the rock. It climbs up to where it's right beside him, and he bumps it and makes it fall down. Did it twice in a row. As I'm writing this the crab is walking along the edge of the rock and Sam has his nose right on the back of it's shell... he seemed to be waiting to push him off. He ended up leaving him alone... went back over to the clowns mushroom.

The other hilarious thing is when my crabs try to walk across the green hairy mushrooms. They get stuck and can't get footing on the soft coral. They fall around like they're trying to crawl across a huge pile of pillows. They usually get stuck until the mushroom gets agitated enough to shrink down and the crabs can walk again. I've even watched the mushrooms try to close up around them. lol.
