but watch out what fish you keep with sexies, they can easily become food for a lot of fish.

Yeah alleni damsels stay prey small and they are pretty calm...hmm i'm exicited now:)

I'm pretty sure I'm going to get a sexy but I was looking at a book today and I saw a pistol shrimp that looked pretty neat...what about one of those too?

Pistol shrimp are cool and IMO there better when there with a watchman goby. Seeing that relationship between the two of them is pretty cool. My watchman is with the pair of peppermint shrimp in his hole.

plus you'll never see more than antenna with just the shrimp.
a pinkspotted or yellow watchman with a shrimp could be a god addition to that tank.

A clown goby wont pair up with a pistol am afraid...

Out of the choices of shrimp you noted, i would certainly go with a pistol if you were adding a shrimp goby also....If you dont intend on a shrimp goby, then my choice would be sexy..
