I am still in the research phase here and I should be starting my tank this weekend. After the cycling is complete however I planned on getting one of these "cleaning crews". For a 55 gal tank they recommend the following 12 Scarlet Hermits,24 Mexican Turbosnails and 35 Dwarf Red Tip Hermits. Can I get away with the smaller pack for a 35 tank that only has half this amount? My fear is that the critters do too good of job and their population will exceed the amount of food that is left for them.
Also am I correct in adding this package once the tank is truly cycled or can it be done prior to ?
