3/13-This little guy arrived healthy and happy. He has settled right in and I am eagerly awaiting the meeting of he and my pistol shrimp! He is small, but I am glad that I get to watch him grow. He was a trial order to evaluate how r2g conducts business. I am pleased to say that he was packaged with care (along with some ricordea) and great packaging. I will be ordering from you again. Thank you! (I included the date so that people have an idea of how well you are conducting business currently.) |

This is by far the neatest symbiotic relationship I've seen yet! I have an anemone and clownfish but this is so cute to watch! I bought this fish and the tiger pistol shrimp. They arrived way smaller than I expected but they paired up within half an hour. The fish freaked out until it found the shrimp. The shrimp started digging right away and let me tell you...do not let it's tiny size fool you! They can really move some sand quickly! The shrimp kept coming out of it's cave and "looking" towards the fish like hello, here I am! They are so funny to watch. So while the fish is cute as can be by itself, I suggest getting a pistol shrimp of some type to go with it. The fish is also neat because it takes in mouthfulls of sand and sifts it through its gills. I'd always heard of fish doing this but never seen it for myself till now. When your fish arrives don't be shocked if it's tiny. They are so cute and enjoyable to watch! |

Cutest little guy out there. I have a nano tank so I like to fill the bottom up with critters that are very active. This yellow watchman is peaceful and are very social once they get acclimated to the tank. |

I expected something a little bigger. in the first few days he hid so well we thought that one of the pistols shrimps had shot him dead but then he reappeared. great fish though. love to see him sift the sand. Thanks Reefs2go |

Beautiful strong little fish. He is very hardy for what my angel and tangs have put him through. They leave him alone now but he originally was chased and is still doing great. On the small size so I have to make sure he doesn't go into the filter sometimes. |
