I have the pistol shrimp (thanks Scott) - but am missing the goby (prefer Randall's goby). I bet those two guys are a great way to keep the gravel stirred up and get that detrius in the water column to be removed!
Hey, if any shop has a Randall's goby let me know. Thanks.

yeah, the pistol does a good job!
I want another pair ahain. Mine lived for only 2 years then dissappeared. They will help keep the bristle worms in check. I have seen them both eating them.

Did you guys feed anything to the shrimp? I'm concerned my little guy is getting no food without a goby. I did manage to find his 'cave' last night so I know he is alive and well - and I can hear him clicking.

Im not sure about feeding them, mine have always been a pair and when I feed the tank the pistol will chill by the gobys gill,eating I guess.
