It is important to allow it to dig a burrow. Juvenile recruits that can't dig often lose the ability to do so.

It is trying to burrow but it just made the whole tank look like a moon landscape. Could it be that, because it is so small, I have to give it mud? I used a fine grain of coral sand but everything looks big compared to this little guy.
