    Ok I got these guy in a package deal and I just don't like them at all. Problem is not sure how to get them out. If you can help and you would like them I would give you a great deal or we can trade some thing.
    Let me know here is a Picture of when I got them. They came with a bunch of other great fish I got and never thought I would not like them, but they are not my kind of pair.  Maybe we can use the new fish trap the club has. I am also ok with the Idea that I just get rid of the shrimp. lol

    No fish trap only par meters. lol The pistol shrimp should crawl under a rock and the goby should defend it. Lets see a picture of where they are now and then I can advise on how to catch.

    Ok they are under this rock you can see the goby peeking out on the one side, but they have been all over and its getting to much for my tank and my taste.

    If you can pick that rock up netting the shrimp should be easy, they are almost blind, then catching the goby is another issue. I never had trouble since they usually stay on the bottm or up the side of the tank when chased which makes em easy to net. BUT every fish is different so......

    We are having out local meeting on Sunday at 2pm. It would be great if you could get the shrimp out. I would just keep the goby, because he is not the problem. Here is a tank shoot.
    This is a more current picture..
