I was just adding some new frags to my tank and I finally confirmed what I thought. My 1 year old nano cube has a pistol shrimp. He is tan and white banded and I confirmed it when I saw him poke his head out to warn off a hermit that was coming close to his home. He ran up to the hermit snapped his claw and ran back in.
Cool. Wish this tank was big enough for a shrimp goby.

Its a nanocube 12 gallon and it already has 2 clowns and a peppermint shrimp. How small does the yellow watchman get?

It's risky adding 3 fish to a 12 gallon. Would definatly mean monitoring water levels more closely and more frequent water changes, not that they'd be big water changes

Yea I know I dont think that I will get one now. I am trying to convince the wife to upgrade this 12 gallon to a 90 or 110 built in. I am giving her that lets rip out those built in bookshelves and custom build a tank in its place. We will still have some shelves and it will look great.

the barbershop shrimpgoby stays pretty small you might be able to have one in there if your filtration is good enough and you keep an eye on your water.
