Adding Fish ?

[Pezpit]

I have a 20 gallon nano with a Yellow Tail Damsel and Coralbannded shrimp 20 lbs. live rock was thinking of adding a Yellow watchman goby and a pistol shrimp. Do you think they will be fine or opt for some other combination. Thank You Pez

My yellow tail damsel never bothers anybody. A goby and shrimp sound like pretty nice additions to me.

I recently got rid of my yellowtail damsel because it didn't nothing but terrorize my tank. And the thing is, is that it all of a sudden did this. I think it finally reached maturity.

Good lucK!

I hope you have better luck than I did!

I wouldn't worry about the damsel, if we're talking about the same fish. But I'm not sure the shrimp would be safe with the CB shrimp - not sure it wouldn't though...

What I really wanted to post was to warn you that your shrimp and goby may rearrange your sand. Mine must have dug a 3 bedroom condo down there, because the sand was piled up about 4 inches high onto the front glass of the tank. And you can't really do anything about it, because you don't want to cause a cave in. I'll never get another one. It was very cool to watch them though

Thanks for the info my Damsel seems ok he lets the CB shrimp clean him and I can actually feed him out of hand but who knows how he will act with other fish. really like the Watchman Goby and seen they pair well with the Pistol shrimp.
