    The Yellow Watchman goby is well known to have a symbiosis with pistol shrimp. For the past months, I was on the hunt for what could be the best possible goby to pair with my pistol shrimp: Alpheus Ochrostriatus
    Those 2 species coming from the same area, same color, both being very active, about the same size, I thought the Cryptocentrus cinctus would be the perfect candidate. I hesitated to get this fish at first because of its size vs my nano but knowing their behavior I thought this could be acceptable.

    Here in Brazil, this fish, the yellow watchman, is very well known, and has already been the subject of some studies on color change. There is no evidence that the color change is sex-related. In the same way that there are male yellow fish, there are also females, the same happens with the gray ones. There are hypotheses about temperature, water, ph, etc, but nothing concrete. There is a lack of investment in more studies on the species to better understand this change, as it is something of interest to shopkeepers, as the buyer looks for a yellow fish in the store and in a few months he may have a gray one in its place. And to be honest, the grays aren't all that attractive compared to vibrant yellows.

    i also have a goby/shrimp pair although my goby seems to be leaving my shrimp behind more and more =|

    Can u explain how do u keep ur hatchery box fixed n does it have a lid? I have a spare mini aquarium here n I might use it as a box for observation n to socialize new fishes into the fish tank, might open little holes on it to let water pass through.
