Tiger Pistol Shrimp Pairing With Two Fish?
Has anyone ever witnessed their shrimp pairing with multiple fish? I have been unable to get a good photo but have witnessed my firefish and goby occupying the shrimps home for a while now.
Today, the goby was out the back exit and while hoping to see the shrimp crawl out, i instead saw it come out the main entrance with what looked to be an antenna on the firefish. Interested in hearing others experience! Last edited by ThroThra; 04/21/2019 at 03:13 PM. |

Here is a picture that was taken from the wild I saw in another thread a while back. 3 different gobies in a burrow(I have no idea if there is a shrimp in there but I assume so), so I think it is definitely possible in the home aquarium.

As long as they watch out and give the right signals the shrimp couldn't care less about the kind of goby that watches out at it's burrows entrances. And it equally cares little about the relationship between its watcher gobies.
This is really up to the gobies and if they are okay with being "roommates". Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
