As the title said, I'm considering adding a pistol shrimp to my 90gal mixed reef. I've already got a fairly small Yellow Watchman Goby about 2" long in there and I think he could use a buddy. I've got egg crate under my rockwork with the rocks sitting firmly on the eggcrate beneath the sand so I think I'm as safe as one can be from rock slides with a digger in the tank.
Is there a best species of pistol shrimp or any difference in behavior among the various species? (specifically with a yellow watchman if that makes a difference)
Will it eat other shrimp like my scarlet cleaners? I saw the video floating around that shows the pistol stunning and dragging away a cleaner shrimp.
What else should I know before making this decision?
Thanks!
