# of pistol shrimp per tank? Behavior?
What happens if you have a pair of highfin gobies, a single [prob male] yellow watchman, and add 3 tiger pistol shrimp to a 52g?
I know---sounds like the beginning of a joke, but I'm trying to figure this situation before getting a shrimp, or two, or three, or should I at all? Complication: I have peppermints and 2 bumblebee shrimp: half an inch long, eat sucker feet off urchins and starfish. Is anybody likely to become lunch?

I've 2 YWG (not mated) live under separate rocks and I have added 3 Pistols but only one have pair up with the goby. Once they pair up they don't leave each except during feeding time the goby will come out to eat but the Pistol never come out except clearing sand under the rock. I'm also looking into getting a pair of Highfin but wonder if it will get along with the YWG. The YWG that is not pair up with the Pistol is sharing the home with a Yel Jawfish and I can't see three-some under that rock since its pretty crowded with the Serpent Star in there also.

My highfin female drove the yellow watchman out of his hole, and she's a third his size. The highfin male stays with her only at night. Nobody has gotten bitten except the male highfin, probably by the female, and that was no great damage. They're great fish.

Yes: Foster/Smith. Specify size you'd like to have, and they'll try to accommodate.
