Shrimp & Goby Pairs

I recently purchased a Yasha Hase goby and shrimp that were paired up at the LFS. They were healthy and eating.

They are the only occupants in the tank aside from a brittle star.

I havent seen them since they were introduced to the tank yesterday afternoon.

I tried coaxing them out with a Selcon soaked prawn but they havent come out yet.

Any idea on how long until I can see them?

Good call on the Yasha! I heard that with their colorations they make a striking impression paired with a pistol shrimp. Sorry i can't give you any information on when to expect to see them but when you do i'll be waiting for pics too!
