Hi,

I've recently bought some fiddler crabs from petsmart and I am wondering what other brackish fish can co-exist with'em?

It's a 10g... with some land exposure...
It's not critical to get some of these fish but I don't want them fighting...:nutkick:
Thank u From FFz2

I wouldnt really put anything brackish in a ten gallon... but thats my personal opinion.
Maybe a bumble bee goby if you have enough water, or a knight goby?
Something small that wouldnt get killed by your crbas... but do you still have a filter running the water?

I have an under gravel filter running 24/7 and a small water pump for a small wave effect. I like the idea of shrimp though.

a shoal of BBGs would do fine in a 10gal.

I just got some least killifish, they are said to do well in brackish, but they are so small that a crab might see them as a potential snack.

bumblee gobies are your best choice for brackish but you could just go fresh with something else and fiddler crabs are fresh as well. and kight gobies are fresh as well.

Crabs are opportunistic feeders & will eat anything they can catch in their claws. Gobies hang around on surfaces resting a lot--easy prey.
