tiger pistol shrimp

Hello everyone! I received my bi-monthly live food shipment in the mail and to my surprise they had sent me a bunch of stuff I did not order. They told me to keep it free of charge as it was their error so I now have a frag with like 10 zoas, a purple whip, 6 peppermint shrimps and several...

In a few months I plan on having fish in my 30 gallon tank, which will eventually house mushroom corals, a green bubble tip anemone, two ocellaris clownfish, a royal gramma, and a few inverts. I also plan on buying a yellow watchman goby and a tiger pistol shrimp, which will hopefully live...

Okay so i did something without thinking. I had ywg and tiger pistol pair. The tiger was over 2 in long and being a pain in the rear. So my lfs suggested i swap him for a candy aka randolls pistol. I did. Havent seen the candy since and the day i pulled the tiger my ywg stopped eating. This all...

I just put these guy in my tank yesterday. They loved each other and immediately bonded. They built a tunnel under the rock and the YWG had his head out of the hole for the past 24 hours. I went to go check on them and they are both gone no signs of them anywhere. The opening to the tunnel...

This morning my tiger and pistol shrimp pair were doing great. They came out together, the shrimp looked normal and was tidying up the place from there sleep that night. However, he went inside his cave around mid day, and hasnt come out since. And now my YWG won't go to sleep or enter his cave...

Well as the title says, I picked up an very small tiger pistol shrimp last night and during the transfer into the tank his larger claw seems to have broken off. He seems to be doing fine without it. Will this grow back and if so how long am I looking at? thanks

Sup, new guy here so guess I'll list off what I'm werk'in with here! 30 gallon Oceanic cube with 10 gallon sump/fuge setup with skimmer ehime 80 gl canister filter with some carbon and allot of pads and bio balls. Filter runs to a 60w UV sterilizer at about 40 to 45 gph for optimal use of...

Ok, so it's a month away LOL. . but i'm making plans to go up to that fish place next month, and am tyring to figure out what shall be my next fishie I have two percula clown fish and four green chromis, that be it. Thoughts opinions on these? Royal Gamma Basslet Strawberry Pseudochromis...

My biggest concern are the tangs. Yes? No? Maybe? I see a lot of people do it. However, a 90 gallon is still just a 4 foot tank. I would love to have a blue tang and Powder Blue Tang. I have: 1 Ocellaris Clownfish (Amphiprion ocellaris) 3 Green Chromis (Chromis viridis) 1 Six Line Wrasse...

I just picked up a Pink Bar Goby and a Tiger Pistol Shrimp. I will not be home until about 6 so I will post some pics then.

My Blog.......... I wish I was rich... :bawling:

Well I got a 4 gallon Finnex nano tank for Father's Day. It came with a HOB filter ~30GPH, and 18W 50/50 PC bulb. It's at my office at work so I have something to look at during the day. I filled up with salt water this morning and got everything wired. There's also a 25 watt heater in...

This weekend I added twenty turbo snails to my tank. I dropped one in at a time and each one ended upside down. How in the world can they survive in nature?

wheelers goby and tiger pistol shrimp teamed up to create this cozy house :)

i have a wheelers goby and tiger pistol shrimp pair that i really love, the problem is they wont let me aquascape. the pistol buries everything and im limited to only placing corals at the top of the rocks which looks off balance. the tank just looks bad, its my worst looking tank and its in the...

So in my reef, I have a percula clown, yellow watchman goby, and a green chromis. I also purchased a tiger pistol shrimp thinking it would pair with my watchman. Guess what...it did't. Now after a month of having it, it paired with the green chromis. I also have a bulb tip anemone for the clown...

I've done some research on sun flower coral or flower pot coral on the net and I got mixed info in terms of its placement in the tank and care level.. Some articles stated that it should be placed where strong current and lighting.. but some other articles suggested opposite. Is this coral...

Ever wonder where your Zoanthid frags keep disappearing to? Well wonder no more. Here is my mated pair of YWG's with their Tiger pistol shrimp caught red handed. I am appointing the Purple Tang as the Judge and the Bi-Color blenny as the prosecutor! Court is now in session! :read:

Okay...so the essance of this post is, what can I add to my 72 SPS tank? I've had the tank for over 2 years...as a result, I've had some losses. After I finally got the tank where I want it, the losses from that point on were beyond my control. I have: fish: 1 coral beauty 1 hippo tang 2...

So I am thinking of doing said combo, does anyone want to give me advice or share experiences?
