cleanup crew?

Recommended Posts

Finally have my 90 running and will be adding  45 more lbs of liverock Friday. I wanted to get some input on a clean up crew. I was thinking something like 50 nassarius, 50 cerith, 20 turbos, 20 scarlet leg hermits, a couple peppermint shrimp & maybe a brittle star.

Thanks, Tom

trochus snails are my favorites, hermits I don't like at all.  If you add a brittle star, avoid the green ones.  I had a red one for a long time and was not a fish hunter.  serpent stars, linkas, or fromia sea stars are other options.    For peppermints, I'd start with about 6 of them.

Tom,

Eddi at http://www.reeftopia.com will take good care of you for orders, great pricing!

Let her know that your from WAMAS, our last group order was for $800+.

On the group order, my recommendations are to order for yourself, unless Tri wants to drive to Cumberland MD :)

 

Tri,

If you want to take the lead for a group order, feel free. I'm all "leaded" out for orders for now, but will add to it?

Howard

 

PS,

I have a 90g and this is what I would recommend IMO:

50 nassarius  

50 cerith

20 turbos

40 Red Leg Crabs, NO Large Hermits, they got me for $150 worth of fish last time!

6 peppermint shrimp

2-4 Emerald Crabs, great cleaners and don't seem to bother anyone

2 Cleaner Shrimp

1 brittle star BLACK!

1 Serpent Starfish
