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! ☺️
 
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
 
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.
