My established hifin goby has accepted the new addition! So happy to have this little trio! A long-time dream of mine 😁💛

I would like to have this kind of shrimp, but it is not alowed to import it to Brazil 🥲
This is Alpheus randalli or candy cane pistol shrimp. I thought a hobbyist might not be able to bring it in but a commercial importer could? Are you able to request from your local fish store? I'm not too knowledgeable about Brazilian law, but I work in wholesale marine selling, so I'm interested to know!
The list of animals alowed for the importation is Very short and this kind of shrimp that make simbioses with a goby unfortunately is not on the list
That is truly a bummer. You might still be able to have a symbiotic relationship in your tank! Dartfish are known to share burrows with "shrimp gobies", you can read about it in the August 19, 2020 Coral magazine article "Playing with Darts". Super interesting and when I have my big tank set up I'll surely be attempting a pair!
