Kaplanm Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I've got a 5 gallon nano, and I have a tiger pistol shrimp paired with a Randalls goby. Additionally I have an issue with aiptasia that I simply can't eradicate. Would it be possible to introduce a peppermint shrimp to the mix, or will the pistol turn it into caviche right quick?

Timfish Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I've had them together once without any apparent problems but it was in a 500 gallon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornToHula Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I have two peppermint shrimp and a large pistol shrimp in a 75 gallon with no issues. I'm not sure if that helps you at all since your tank is smaller, but I haven't experienced any aggression between the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bige Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I have a pistol and two peppermint shrimp in my sump. They don't even interact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prettyfishy76 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I have both animals in a 29 gallon tank. I don't think they even notice each other. The pistol hangs out in his caves and the peppermint hangs out in the rocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad and Belinda Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I have several peppermints and one accidentally introduced pistol. I keep hoping they will take him out but months later they are all living in harmony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaplanm Posted September 3, 2014 Author Share Posted September 3, 2014 Thanks for the advice. I'm going to give it a go. I'll report back in a few weeks. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
