YWG appears to be stuck in Pistol burrow

[neverrain]

I have a WYG/Pistol combo. The shrimp has dug out a nice tunnel under a large piece of rock, the opens in at least 2 (I think 3) places. The 2 visible openings cave in frequently (the shrimp is still fairly small). Until recently, the YWG has always kinda sat with it's ass in the cave, and the front half sticking out (like it can't fit inside). Within the last couple days, the shrimp either finished a larger portion under the rock, or opened up the opening enough for the fish to the point where the fish actually dives into the cave and disappears under the rock.

 

The fish has been able to go in and out for a couple days now. Yesterday, while I was feeding coral, I notiiced some of the rubble fell into the bigger openeing for the cave where I see the fish go in and out, so i pulled some of the rubble away so the hole was open. I saw the fish yesterday. Today, both openings I can see appear caved in and I am concerned that the fish is trapped under the rock.

 

My question:

 

Should I be concerned enough to pick up the rock and make sure the fish isn't stuck? I don't really know how common this is in the wild or in tanks. I haven't physically seen the fish eat in a couple days either. Any input/experience with this?

Disregard. Fiance caught the fish out of the hole. Guess the shrimp opened it up or he just pushed his way out. Nature solved it's own problem.

Only time my Yasha comes out of his hole anymore is when I haven't fed the tank enough.

 

I am convinced he's got a big screen tv and cable in there.

I'm so happy my Yasha is always out. He has a pair of mated pistols he lives with. Guess it's pretty crowded in there. lol I'm always seeing atleast one shrimp digging away!
