    Will gobies ALWAYS pair with pistol shrimp?

    TWOLITRE, I'm not sure you can ever answer always to anything in this hobby :)....Certain types of gobies with certain types of pistols are more likely to pair up from my reading. If you're interested in a pairing, the best bet is to buy them already paired up at the LFS. I did this, and they have still not totally paired back up again in my tank - so again, never a "sure" thing....I'm still hoping they will, it's been a little over a month and I have seen the goby near the tunnel.....
