Shrimp/Sand Sifting Goby?

[honeyb627]

Are any of the shrimp gobies also sand sifting gobies? We've looked online a bit, but I can't seem to find any, hoping maybe I missed something in my searches. Would love a shrimp goby, but would also love to have a sand sifting goby... maybe we'll just have to get both eventually!

But the yellow head and diamond gobies are not Shrimp gobies as well are they?

I don't believe you will find a shrimp goby that is also a sand sifter. The pistol shrimp may do a decent job of sifting, though. Sometimes they like to go out at night and stir things up. I'd recommend getting one of each.

That's kind of what I'm thinking maybe too at some point. Do most gobies get along with one another?

I have an Aurora/Pink Barred Goby(shrimp goby) and a Diamond Goby(major sand sifter) in my 120G and they don't even acknowledge each other.
