jamescstein Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 You may find your goby is missing in the hole with the shrimp. They'll do that. 1 2 Quote Link to comment
mndfreeze Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 What kind of goby and pistol shrimp? Some species don't ever pair, some species will only pair with specific other species, etc. It also can take some time for them to decide to be buds and roomies if they are the right species. Disappearing is normal for both. Quote Link to comment
jamescstein Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 For example. I had a bonded pair of tiger pistols. Hang out together, live together, build together. Wanted some gobies for them, read that the Dracula goby will pair with Tigers. Bought a pair of Dracula's. Now I have a female Dracula goby with my pair of tigers and the male Dracula goby living nearby but alone in a tube. Odd creatures. I'm assuming they'll get together eventually. Quote Link to comment
