Pistol shrimp! Why? Oh why?
 
How often does everyones pistol shrimp move? I have a shrimp/goby pair, and they are on their 6th house! One day they kept changing the doorway back and forth. Do they ever settle? Or am I in for a long battle of "where are they now?" :p

My pair does the same thing. I love to watch the shrimp plow sand with the goby keeping watch.

It's the same with my pistol and goby pairs. There like a construction crew.

My pistol shrimp uses shells and sometimes shells with live hermit crabs still in them build stuff with sometimes too. It's funny to watch.

I am intrigued, what kind of goby pairs best with a pistol shrimp?

This game becomes less fun when it turns into "where did they bury my $50 frag".
