The symbiotic relation is called MUTUALISM.
Mutualism is a type of symbiotic relationship in which both organisms that are involved benefit from the relationship. For Pistol shrimps and gobies; the shrimp builds and maintains a burrow that both animals live in and gobies offers protection from the predators to the shrimp; thus the relationship is mutual.
