I absolutely LOVE my pair. They key to where they make their main burrow is where they are dumped in the water. The shrimp is going to hide in the first spot he sees and the goby sill follow. That being said, just make sure that when you release him he is released near the area you wouldn't mind him digging out. My pistol shrimp has never taken a frag though I place them on the opposite side of the tank or even better wedge them into rock. I live feed all of my fish so when the goby comes out for food the shrimp clsmmers out too and I give him a few generous squirts of worms and he eats them all up and takes some into the cave, long as the goby dot steal them first. When the feeding is done hell come out a modest amount and pick up any worms that are dead and the other fish won't eat. He's never messed with my snails or my hermits. I had one snail die and be plucked at by hermits and his shell was. Then stolen by the hermits. They were my first additions other than my test damsel and I wouldn't trade them for anything. Both were paired at the store already I simply upgraded them. He makes mountains of sand that I knock down and level out when I make water changes. It's no big deal at all and helps create a natural look in the tank. His life is a constant construction project.
