Hi guys.. I've been doing a considerable amount of reading up on shrimp and can't come to any conclusions.. every time I find a shrimp I think I like, it turns out to be shy.. or vicious.
So, I'm looking for direct input from real world experience. What are some entertaining to watch shrimp that won't tear my tank apart?
Thanks!
(btw, currently planning goby/pistol and one skunk cleaner.. looking for 1-2 additional)

Goby/pistol combo is as cool as it gets in my opinion. I have a randall goby/tiger pistol pair. Be prepared for the pistol to rearrange your sand and your rockwork if its unstable (hasn't been a problem for me).
I have a cleaner shrimp that goes nuts every time I move a coral or stick my hand in my tank. He wouldn't be in there if I hadn't paid $20 for him. He plays my zoas like a piano. Sexy shrimp are cool, but I'm not sure how compatible the pistol would be with them.

Yeah it seems sexy it just about the only alternative. Or maybe a second cleaner.
I'm definitely excited for the shrimp/goby experience (will be getting a randalls of both)
