Shy goby...

Added my first fish to my new system. Little goby. He just hides under a rock all day. Been in the tank for four days and i haven't seen it. I lifted the rock it's under, and it's just chillin. Worried about it not getting food. Any input?

Just let it be and feed a little and walk away from the tank and watch from a distance.

Agreed... my pink bar goby is hesitant to eat if I am standing by the tank... put the food in and walk away. If you can watch from behind something, that is best. What kind of goby we talking about here?

I believe it's a sleeper goby. It's all while with a blue line on each cheek.
