No, pistol shrimp are small little things

 

[spencer anderson]

and is there a specific kind of pistol shrimp that is more peaceful than others

 

[jay0705]

I could wrong but pistol shrimp are just pistol shrimp. I believe that is the species

 

[bang guy]

There are lots of different Pistol Shrimp. Most are violent predators.

For a Goby pairing I recommend the Tiger Pistol Shrimp which, unlike the name would imply, is quite peaceful.

 

[spencer anderson]

ok the tiger what about the randals goby​

 

[bang guy]

Nice.

 

[kopczynski]

For lower light corals zoanthids are a great beginner coral that could adapt to lower and higher end lighting. You would have to tell us what specific lights you have to get more specific reccomendations.

its a zoomed aqua sun led ho fixture on dr fostersmith​

 

[spencer anderson]

and what would be the best goby shrimp pair​

 

[bang guy]

If I start up another system it'll have a Yasha & a Tiger.

 

[spencer anderson]

will tiger pistol shrimp leave hermit crabs and snails alone

 

[bang guy]

They will snap at both of those to get them out or away from the cave. If the Hermit or Snail keeps going into the cave the Pistol Shrimp will kill them. Usually they back off right away once the Shrimp starts snapping at them.

This is just my personal experience and observations.

 

[spencer anderson]

so a tiger pistol shrimp and yellow watch man goby should pair up and leave snails crabs alone if they dont mess with him and theyl leave a firefish alone

 

[jay0705]

I have a yellow watchman and he shares his cave w a fire fish. I dont have a pistol shrimp

 

[spencer anderson]

well i stil want to see if i can get a pistol shrimp goby pair and the goby i like most is the yellow watchman

 

[jay0705]

Yea there cool fish, and rarely venture far from the burrow

 

[spencer anderson]

anyone have any experience of yellow watch man gobies pairing with randals pistol shrimp
