If anyone is sitting there thinking "what the f is a ywg?" I think he means yellow-watchman goby.

If he's hanging out near the top of the tank when he normally wouldn't I'd keep an eye on him. check all your parameters and all that fun stuff. Fish tend to do that when something's wrong.

Did you follow a proper acclimation procedure?

He could just be stressed from getting into a new tank. If you properly acclimated and your tank is kosher, I'd just turn out the lights for the night and let him get settled in.

Better make sure you have a top on that tank.
