Yasha Gobies

I have had four in my 24 gallon aquapod for 2 weeks now, and they have formed two sets of pairs. Can I assume that these are male-female pairs? Will they breed? Baby yashas would be awesome.

They most likely are pairs. That would be neat.

Cool! If they do, I think there are a bunch of threads on yellow watchmen gobies breeding that might be helpful. Do they have their shrimps as well?

Randall's shrimps pair very nicely with yasha hashe gobies (it's a natural pairing). This type of shrimp would be better for a nano than a tiger because they stay small too (unlike the tigers who get fairly big and dig up a ton of sand).

One of the pairs shares a burrow with a diligent Randall's pistol shrimp.

This relationship is my favorite thing to watch in my tank:
