Description
The Tiger Pistol Shrimp or Tiger Snapping Shrimp has a mosaic white and brown colored body. It has the ability to make a popping sound with its pinchers and has a beneficial relationship with gobies.
The Tiger Pistol Shrimp is best purchased as a fish-shrimp pair. A deep sand bed with flat pieces of rock makes an optimal burrow. Best housed in smaller tanks with peaceful fish.
Marine shrimp are very resourceful in finding their own food but it will be necessary to supplementing their diet with small food pellets and flake food; also include minced meaty foods.
