So I'm pretty sure I have a pistol shrimp in my tank but I can't find it anywhere, however I definitely hear it. Unfortunately because I can't see it anywhere (to be able to relocate it) it will now have to learn to hide form Mr. Bumble Bee. My new frogfish, a Sargassum Angler





top down pic.




So far he seems to like to hang out at the back of the tank. I was wondering if it was because there is more flow at the front, so I unplugged the koralia nano for now and I'll see if it makes a difference. I have also tired numerous attempts to get a video of him swimming, however every time I get the camera in place to take the video he totally freezes up and stops swimming. So far since I got him he's been pretty active and seems to be doing good. Hopefully it stays that way. One thing I noticed that's pretty funny is every time I get too close to the glass he starts wiggling his little lure.

Thanks, I'm hoping he'll do good in my tank. I'm a bit paranoid as I know they can be hard to keep, but for now I'm hoping for the best.
