The Yasa Hashe Goby (Stonogobiops yasha), also known as the Yasa White Ray Shrimp Goby, is a peaceful, hardy fish that should be housed in a 10+ gallon tank with a sandy bottom. Th ey will use bits of rubble to help them build a burrow in the sand. If present, Watchman Gobies will form a symbiotic relationship with certain Pistol Snapping Shrimp. This Goby pairs well with the Candy Stripe (AKA Randall's) Pistol Shrimp. The Goby, using its superior vision, watches for potential threats and warms the shrimp if it needs to retreat into the burrow. The shrimp builds and maintains the burrow. Yasa Hashe Gobies are found singly or in pairs in the wild. They will not nip at corals, and should be offered mysis and brine shrimp, pellet, and other prepared foods to supplement their diet. They are also "jumpers" so a tight fitting lid is a must. These fish reach a maximum size of roughly 2.5". Show more
