Well anyone do a jawfish only tank..? I've been thinking of setting up a 50 gallon tank with just pearly jawfish and a sand bottom mixed with many different sized rocks, stones, shells etc. whatever else they can build a cave with.
-But a question would be is how deep of a sandbed to go for. I never did anything like an 8" sand bed. But i think it would be fun to make such a tank for these types of fish.
-Also i would like the tank backround to be a photo on the moon, with the astronaut n the flag... more for my humor, but i hope the fish dont spazz because of it

This video gave me inspiration for the past year http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9J8ic_HRAGE

I've rarely even see jawfish but after watching that video, seem they have a hilarious personality. If you end up going through this you'll need to set up an American and Soviet Union flag beside each hole;)

Reef Central should develop a "like" button +1 to flags :)

That was freaking hilarious. Great link, thanks for sharing. Gotta love jawfish. I'm wondering if they weren't actually married and the one on the right was the husband. Probably stayed out too late with his buddies!!!

As far as a dedicated tank, I think it would be awesome. If you pursue it, best of luck and keep us posted.
