Hi Fin Red Banded Shrimp Goby?

[Blazer88]

I am considering getting a Hi Fin Red Banded Goby for my 20G long nano. I have read they can be kept in pairs, does anyone have any experience with that? Does it also pair up with the Randall Pistol Shrimp well? I already have a Yasha Haze (avatar) and Tiger Pistol in my main tank, so I was looking for a different combination and I look the look of the Goby. Plus that specific Pistol Shrimp stays smaller than a Tiger (my Tiger is ~3"). Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks for the reply. I was originally attracted to these fish because of their smaller size. My Tiger Pistol is huge and moves large amounts of sand/rubble all over the tank. I'm hoping the Randall Pistol will stay 2" or less as the Hi Fin only gets "up to" 2" in length. I'm hoping these little guys will be a less bulldozer-like.
