    They may be reef safe but they can raise havoc on rock workby undermining it I know this for a fact i do love the relationship between them and the gobies I had a red(tiger?) &watchman gobie they were cool good luck

    Were you wondering if they were reef safe? They are. My pistol shrimp lives with a watchman goby. He doesn't bother my clown fish. I also have 2 peppermint shrimp and a cleaner shrimp which he doesn't bother either.
