Pistol shrimp will always be looking for Shrimp Gobies to pair with. This is because the need the gobies to be their eyes and something bring them food. Shrimp gobies in return will have a well maintain burrow to rest and hide in. Also with the snapping sound of the pistol predators will think twice before venture into their burrows. ;)

There are several shrimp gobies commonly found in LFS such as Yellow watchman, Yashia, High finned banded etc etc... ;)
