VIDEO - My pistol shrimp hard at work :)

My favourite shrimp

 

Very cool, i love pistol shrimp goby pairs

 

That was so cool! How deep is your sandbed?

 

Thanks
Its varies, 2-3" there is about 50lb in a 2 foot cube
I made that vid last week, there are tunnels everywhere now lol with little entrances made from shells, the pistol has even put hatches(doors) on some ;D
The downside to these guys is they can go missing for long spells

 

That's awesome!!

I wish my pistol shrimp would even come out. I've seen him for less than 5 seonds total since I got him 3 months ago.

 

Cool! What lighting do you have?

 

Is your pistol paired up with a goby, it helps for them to have a purpose as such

On the other hand you could always get a couple of cleaner shrimps

 

150w halide and a arcadia reef blue led

 

I have a diamond watchman. Since I never see the pistol shrimp I'm not sure if they're hanging out in the same den or not.

 

maybe they are just keeping out of the way of the other inhabitants.

For anyone who does know why you dont keep pistols and cleaners together heres a great little vid to show why
