Yellow Watchman Goby

Hi

I'm curious about the yellow watchman goby. Do they stir up the sand bed? I had a different goby that was constantly making a mess of things.
I would like to get this fish but not if its a "digger"

They will not dig like the sand sifting gobies will.
Pair the watchman with a pistol shrimp and the shrimp will dig a tunnel while the goby keeps watch.

Watchman are great. Wish I had one. Don't get a GSM clown. They also stir up the sand bed and drive me nuts!

I'm so glad to here this. I thought it would be a cool fish to add.
A pistol shrimp will be coming along for the ride. I've heard about this relationship between the two so this will be a good pair.
Thanks for all the input.
