So I have been getting interested in goby tanks, and I would really like to get one. I have all of the things, but I still have a few questions.
What should the lighting be?
What should the levels of nitrate and nitrite be?
How big should the tank be for both the pistol shrimp and the yellow prawn goby?

Welcome to R2R!!

To answer your questions:
Gobies don’t require any special lighting.
Nitrites won’t be an issue once your tank is cycled. Nitrates aren’t an issue, just avoid extremes.
Nano tanks are fine for a goby and pistol shrimp pair.

Post pics when you get your goby tank going!
