Mine eats anything as long as the food gets down there before the other fish get it. NLS Pellets are good to keep him healthy.

I feed through a pipe near his burrow.

Try injecting the sandbed with some mysis. When they sift the sand, they will pick up the mysis, and will eventually get used to the taste of it. Thats what I did to get my twinspot goby to eat. It eventually swam up and got the mysis.
