paul b October 5, 2011 Share October 5, 2011 A few weeks ago I added one of those silly gobi/shrimp pairs. As soon as the pair hit the water, the shrimp lost the gobi and found a burrow of his own. I didn't see the shrimp for a while and figured he croaked but now I see him hanging out with this old guy pictured below. He lost his mate of 12 years a few months ago and I guess got bored. Now I see both of them digging tunnels. The shrimp starts digging and the gobi who is about 5" backs in and with a few swipes of his tail, cleans out a nice hole. I am glad they found each other and seem happy. Of course the original gobi that I bought with the shrimp is carrying a torch and is all alone. Poor little guy. This is the original gobi I got with the shrimp This one is about 12 or 13 and is the new buddy of the shrimp. He is about 5" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hilary October 6, 2011 Share October 6, 2011 I think I remember you posting a photo of that watchman goby pair, Paul. Glad he found a buddy, though shame on the unfaithful shrimp..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul b October 6, 2011 Author Share October 6, 2011 You mean this one? They spawned for years but the female disappeared. Maybe she ran off with a MANta Ray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
