Hey everyone!
I have a 10gal NANO reef. Day 40ish
2 Clown, 6 Sexy Shrimp, 4 Nassarius, 10 Ceriths (or so), 4 large snails (vibex?), 1 Randal Pistol Shrimp & our protagonist.
I got the Pistol and Wheeler from bluezooaquatics.com and requested they be from separate tanks so I could see them pair up in my tank.
After 5 minutes of being in the tank they seemed to have paired up nicely. He looked happy and was in his little cave just peeping out and doing his thing.
Two days or so later and he found another cave with the pistol, they hid for like a week, nobody saw them at all. Suddenly, one day, we hear snaps, and saw that the pistol was just messing around in another cave, but no Goby.
The goby has not shown up AT ALL, since. It has been over a week. We worry something is wrong? but he is NOWHERE TO BE SEEN. I don't want to stress anything out by moving rocks and stuff.
Is it normal for them to be hiding ALL the time?
We don't even see him when it is feeding time.
Is it normal they are not together?? (pistol/goby)
We see the pistol a lot lately, I guess he is comfortable in his multiple cave system LOL.
Thanks in advance for any help.
