Hello all, Great photos!

I have a yellow watchman goby in a 200g and I would love to pair her with a tiger pistol shrimp. I'm pretty sure it's a her as it has a duller yellow compared to some that I have seen. She only shows her grumpy face at feeding time!

I actually saw tiger pistol shrimp for sale at Pisces here in Calgary but I didn't buy one because I have a few concerns.

- I heard pistol shrimp prey on cleaner shrimp. I have two cleaner shrimp that would rather not get eaten haha. Also there is this video of the shrimp in the wild:

Is it possible to keep them with cleaner shrimp or is that a recipe for disaster?


-I also have a crushed coral substrate, not sand. Is sand required for this shrimp?

Thanks all!
