Happy Birthday to me, magnificent shrimp goby

[MikeandNicole]

After many years of searching my local LFS finally got this in:

I am so excited.

Wow congrats! Do you have a shrimp for it or looking into a certain type?

 

[Ambiturner006]

I dont know anything about that fish, but it sure is pretty. Great find and good luck!

 

[StephLionfish]

Gorgeous fish!

 

[NatureNerd]

Wow, I have never seen one before. Nice fish!

 

[MikeandNicole]

We don't have it paired with a shrimp at the moment. We will look for a candy pistol and pick one up when we find it. I have been searching along time for this fish and am very excited about it.

[LOMBO]

[LOMBO]

Alpheus Randall may work, but I seem to recall that in nature it pairs with an unusual shrimp. I have only seen these in the wild deep at the Lembeh Straits in North Sulawesi. Nice fish!!

Standard care of any shrimp goby really. We had him paired with a shrimp and he took frozen food no problem. We love these guys and will buy them at a moments notice, such great fish
