I consolidated my 30 gallon tank about 6 months ago into my 180. Unfortunately my hi fin banded goby lost his pistol shrimp they went to opposite ends of the tank. That changed today they have found each other again and there was much happiness on the reef.:dance:
 
Glad to hear they found each other. I am going to be moving my goby/pistol shrimp combo into a large tank in the semi-near future, and have been concerned that they will lose each other. Did you put them in together, and they drifted/scurried apart to hide in the new tank? Or did you put one in first, and then try to place the other one in a similar location? My plan at the moment is to put them in the same time, but am unsure if it will work.
 
I put them in together. The goby took off one direction and the pistol the other. I tried to aim for a corner but they had other ideas LOL. If I was to do it again I think I would add the goby let him find a place then try and place the shrimp near him. no guarantee this would work but seems the odds would be better. Good luck
