Coral Banded Shrimp

[Jim Cannon]

I have conflicting info on this shrimp. I see people here have CBS in their Nano, yet when I read up on the species, it says not to put in a tank less than 50G.

What do you all think. I have a 12G Nano. I have mushrooms, a xenia, and some zanothids. Also a clown.

ALSO, what is the shrimp that is symbionic *spelling sucks i know*, with a blenny? What ever it is, was 'out of season' when I first found about it. Can you give me the name of this and the goby it works with.

I have little info to help you I know. Sorry.

pistol shrimp? not all of them will form a pair with gobies, but many will do. i wanted to put a CBS in my 24g AP but decided not to. Maybe a gold CBS since someone told me they are more peaceful and stay smaller.
