Okay now he's like... Swimming at the top of the tank in front of the power head and it looks like he's getting thrashed by the current... But keeps going up there?! It's so weird!!
Dow she just like the current?!

Maybe, fish will act weird for the first couple of days being in a new tank, explore, and play will stuff.
That pistol shrimp is gonna make a bug burrow or him and the goby to live it.
I found holes completely on the other edge of my tank will the goby sticking his head out.

Thanks! he's acting a bit weird right now but hopefully he settles down! My girlfriend says that the shrimp probably told him to go swim around and play while he makes their home, so I'm just gonna go with that!

What kind of shrimp did you get?
I got a coral banded shrimp and barely ever seen him except when he was moving sand.

Okay I'm getting seriously scared about my goby getting to close to the power head. He's almost gotten sucked in a few times... Should I wrap it in pantyhose or something?!

You get to see his creations! An no you should be fine. He'll stay away. He shouldn't be able to be sucked in.

There are lots of kinds of pistol shrimp.
That looks like a maxijet. You should be worried, they have big openings (lost a nem to one). Does maxijet sell foam covers? Forgive me if it's not maxijet.

I tried covering it with pantyhose and it stopped the flow completely. Anyone else have any other suggestions?
And when do you think I could get some coral?
