Christian Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 OK what are good shrimp that can go with gobies that are not pistol shrimp? would a blood red fire shrimp go well with a gobie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robb in Austin Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I'm not 100% sure, but I believe the only shrimp/goby symbiotic combos are those involving pistols. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted August 6, 2009 Author Share Posted August 6, 2009 Sorry I meant to put what shrimp would not get eaten by my pink and blue spotted gobie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NonSequitur Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I know a mantis shrimp would be safe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted August 6, 2009 Author Share Posted August 6, 2009 I'm not putting a killing shrimp into the tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robb in Austin Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Ok then. I would think any other type of shrimp would be fine, except maybe a coral banded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robb in Austin Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 They tend to become aggressive and may eat your goby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mFrame Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I love my coral banded, but he's a jerk and he rules the tank (not to mention he's HUGE). My watchmen goby lives at the top of the tank behind my ATO because of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
