I have 24sqft of sand area and I'm not certain that there is enough in the sand to sustain my two gobies. Fortunately, as Floop says...they do take a variety of other foods.

I think if you can buy one that is eating other food like mysis or pellets then you should be fine. However if the goby is only living off of the sand, you would need a lot more sand then a 24g can hold.
