I finally finished the cycle of my 20g long. I added a false percula clown yesterday and he is out and about, doing well. I'd like to add 1 or more shrimp, as I think they're cool and they can provide a bit of cleaning duty. I prefer interesting creatures with cool behavior over pretty ones that sulk. :) The tank is open with no lid, if that's a consideration.
 
sexy shrimp! :dance:
 
thihs pair takes the cake, personality and interesting behaviour......the wheelers gobie and tiger pistol shrimp at home in my 20g reef

I've read about some shrimp and gobies establishing a relationship. Are the pistol shrimp and wheelers goby the only pair or are there others?
no, other pistol shrimps and species of shrimp gobies will... some other exammples of shirimp gobies are yellow watchman gobies, pinkspot watchman gobies, yasha hase gobies, ect.
 
The cleaners in my tank are pretty cool. They have always been available to clean the fish and they add nice color. I like it when they come out to feast on the food I drop in for everyone. They eat pellets, Formula One, flakes, and interact nicely with everyone in the glass.
 
Is there a limit to how many shrimp I could conceivably add to my tank without running into problems? I've read that they are all pretty peaceful, but bioload is another thing.

Also, anyone know why I'm not receiving any notifications via email for updates to this thread?
