    I've had a Stonogobiops nematodes in my 29g for about 2 weeks. He's eating well and has made his own little den. I just added the pistol shrimp, Alpheus randalli, last night. However I forgot to turn the PH off and he glided away and under a different rock away from the goby's den. Funny how things never go as planned.

    Just wondering will shrimp and goby find each other? I'd really hate for the shrimp to start making his borrow on the backside where I'll never see him

    He will make many burrows. All over the place. They will find each other, the pistol will pretty much take over the whole bottom of your tank. I had a goby that disappeared. I then bought a pistol to go find him. Never did, guess he died or something.. I then got another goby and he found the shrimp. They lived happily ever after. Lol.
