    I was wanting to add ablue spot jawfish to my aquarium, I currently have a mated pair of gobies as well as a pistol shrimp. All I can find is not to put two jaw fish togethor. Anyone have any insight or suggestions.

    Jawfishes will do fine with other fish. He will be a territorial little guy around his burrow, but he'll seldom leave his area. You may see him spitting sand at nearby fishes, but that's normal. How deep is your substrate (Jawfishes need deeper beds than pistols)? Just make sure your shrimp can't fit in his mouth, though you may be lucky and he could have the same relationship with the shrimp as it does with the gobies!


    BTW, this should not be in the ASAP section

    My sandbed is roughly 4-5 inches deep, thanks for the info and advice.

    This is my first post and relized I put it in ASAP.

    Thanks
