Now I know that I am probably overstocking my tank, but hear me out first before I get flamed. eTropicals.com had a special where you can build your own reef cleaning package. I am having ALOT of algae growth on everything in the tank, glass is slimey, rock is slimey etc etc; so I purchased the following:
5 Dwarf Red Tip Hermit Crabs
5 Dwarf Blue Leg Hermit Crabs
2 Emerald Mithrax Crabs
1 Banded Coral Shrimp
10 Nassarius Snails
10 Cerith Snails
5 Bumble Bee Snails
1 Brittle Sea Star
All that for $67.00 with Free Overnight Shipping. Not a bad deal if you ask me.
Here are my latest water params. NH3: 0 NO3: 5 NO2: 0 pH: 8.1 SG: 1.023 Salinity 31 and temp running between 76.5 and 77.1.
My main question is, Is my temp ok for the livestock that I am about to introduce? I have seen that the temp shoud be between 72 and 78 for all the inverts in my list. Is that an absolute or more of a guideline?
TIA
