Alpheus bellulus – Tiger Pistol Shrimp in Symbiosis with Goby
The Alpheus bellulus, also known as the tiger pistol shrimp, is a reef crustacean as aesthetic as it is useful. Native to the Indo-Pacific Ocean, this shrimp is highly valued for its symbiotic behavior with gobies such as Stonogobiops yasha. With its hypertrophied claw, it emits a distinctive snapping sound, characteristic of the so-called "pistol" shrimps.
A Symbiotic Shrimp with Unique Stripes
The Alpheus bellulus shrimp is distinguished by its striped white and brown colors, earning it the nickname tiger pistol shrimp. It is famous for its peaceful and functional cohabitation with a sentinel goby. While it digs a burrow in the sand, the goby keeps watch over the surroundings. This natural symbiosis is fascinating to observe in a well-arranged reef aquarium.
Maintenance Conditions
- Recommended minimum volume: 60 to 100 liters
- Temperature: 24°C to 27°C
- pH: 8.0 to 8.4
- Decor: sandy substrate, live rocks with hiding places
- Water flow: moderate
Behavior and Compatibility
Very peaceful, the Alpheus bellulus remains discreet and stays close to its burrow. It can live alone but is even more interesting when associated with a partner goby. This shrimp poses no danger to fish, corals, or other invertebrates. It is ideal for community reef aquariums.
Feeding
The tiger pistol shrimp is omnivorous and detritivorous. It feeds on:
- Organic debris
- Small food particles in the sand
- Artemia, mysis, frozen or fresh food
Why Choose Alpheus bellulus?
- Fascinating symbiotic shrimp to observe
- Compatible with gobies like Stonogobiops yasha
- Peaceful behavior, ideal for reef aquariums
- Easy to maintain if the decor is suitable
- Builds tunnels contributing to sand aeration

Arrivée très petite, elle s'est réfugiée sous une pierre et je ne l'ai jamais revue. Je viens d'en commander une autre, et j'espère que cela ira.

Encore plus beau que sur la photo, acclimatation très rapide, le couple s est trouvé au bout de quelques heures et se sont mis à multiplier les terriens, j avais bien stabilisé mes pierres avant mais un sacré remue menage. Une grande animation dans le bac.
