What shrimps can a hifin pair with

[Booboobear259]

I have a hifin goby in my 29 gallon tank and I want to pair it with a shrimp. Does anyone know which shrimps it can pair with

 

[MikeandNicole]

Ours are with a tiger. In a 29 a candy pistol would also work, the candies stay smaller and aren't quite as aggressive diggers.

can a red coral banded pair with it

 

[MJSavage]

No, Coral Banded shrimp are the wrong type. You are looking for some type of Pistol shrimp.

Absolutely.
Fun to watch making burrows if you can get it by the wall of the tank.

You sure take nice pictures! Sadly I do not have that skill.

I've had a tiger and a Randall's at different times in different tanks. The Randall's didn't really do as much digging as the tiger pistol. Tigers are very industrious little guys.

Not mine, Steve. Ask Misled Jesse aboot my cruddy photographic skills!
His advice to me was turn off the flash and get a tripod. :wave:
