What can pair with a Red Pistol Shrimp?

[leilani908]

Hello! I have a pretty large, full grow, all red pistol shrimp and was wondering what I can pair with the shrimp or if I can? I'd love a pistol and fish pairing, but idk if it's only specific pistol shrimp that can have pairings. Thank you!

If it's alpheus randalli, I know it can pair with Stonogobiops, as well as Amblyeleotris gobies!

I'm unsure what it exactly is, but he looks like this

Ah, a Synalpheus spp, and not Alpheus randalli. hmmm....yeah I got nothing, sorry. You could try it with various shrimp gobies? Does the shrimp live in the rockwork, or does it have a burrow?

Various gobies are compatible

Is Cryptocentrus to A. bellulus and Stongobiops + Amblyeoteorsis to A. randalli?

As far as I know Synalpheus sp. don't live symbiotically with fish. They have a symbiotic relation with sponges, corals, crinoids or non at all.
