    I got him at the LFS . They just dropped off some coral and they were still in the bag. He was hiding between two pieces of devil hand coral. I bought both of them. So he was a pretty cool hitchhiker. He love making caves under my crushed coral gravel. Will he pair up with one of my gobies?

    Yeah I have no life now. :p ID's are a puzzle to me. Plus I do not give an answer unless I am in the general ball park so that ups my average. ;)

    I wish I had my life back. This tank Is taking all my time and money. I sold my 75 gallon and got a 125 for the same price. Thought it wasn't going to cost me anything.The problem is now I need to fill it with fish and coral :-D

    Nice hitch hiker. Congratulations!

    What types of gobies do you have? Only certain species will pair with a pistol shrimp.
