2 randalli pistol shrimps

[eaglesrx]

What do you guys think of 2 randalli pistol shrimps in a 28g tank? would they fight, would they not be able to find enough food?

the reason I'm asking is, that if my randalli may still be alive and I buy another pistol, i'm wondering if 2 will work.

thanks

should be fine. I had 2 huge tigers (2" and 2.5") in a 10g. They would pop at eachother but never did anything to hurt one another. They're in a 50g now. I have 2 randals in another 50g and will probably add a couple more. They don't get as big as the tigers so should be plenty fine in a 28g.

This is great news. I'm hoping my pair of yasha's will pair up with one of the randalli shrimp. Of course, that's if the first shrimp is still alive.

Thanks!

the last two times I rearranged the rock work in my tank, I found my randall's in the overflow box, they're so tiny! I've never spot fed mine either, and they don't have gobies yet so I'm guessing they just feed on pods and left overs. I feed my tigers bits of silversides and krill... now they get greedy and want it every day. I need to get some gobies so I don't have to target feed anymore!

Hmm, overflow box? I'll have to double check mine. I don't think he ended up there, but you never know.
thanks!
