Hi.

So, simple question for those who had both.

How outgoing is a tiger pistol shrimp compared to a candy cane pistol shrimp? I had a Candy Cane in the past but the thing was beyond skittish despite being paired, I think I never saw it fully outside of its tunnel.

Is the tiger similar, or will I actually get to see it if I get one?

Thanks.

how large was it?

My old tank, had a tiny tiger that behaved much like you described.

I have one now, that's at an inch or larger that...while skittish, come feeding time will roam 3-6 inches or more from the entrance...unpaired.
 

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
