    What type of sand for goby/shrimp?

    I'm setting up a tank for either a shrimp/goby or for a pair of harlequins I will decide while the tank cycles. My question is for the shrimp/goby would they prefer a fine sand or more of a crushed coral type?

I made a guess and said possibly hydnaphora but I've never seen it like this or these colors. when he picked it up the little feelers retracted back in and it looked like a tiny...
