Quarantine Orange Spotted Goby?? quick answer appreciated

[otrlynn]

Just bought an orange spotted Goby, also known as a diamond watchman goby. He is floating in the bag in the tank right now and I will drip aclimate him. But my question is, do I put him in my QT (up, cycled, and ready) or acclimate him to the display. I am worried about his ability to survive in the QT without a sandy bottom. I could put a small tray of sand in the QT, but he'd have it well sifted by the end of a typical 4 week quarantine period. I will also be quarantining 2 other new fish. Hoping for a quick answer. Please forgive cross-post to new at hobby. Didn't know where I'd get more answers. Thanks

I think they still might eat food even if its not in the sand bed, so i would still QT him if you haven't already put him into the DT

Still floating in bag (bag open) hoping for some more responses

Why not add sand to your QT? It's not a hospital tank.
