Getting 1st tank, 25 gal. ....I will have some coral reef later on.....just in planning stages as tank, etc. hasn't arrived yet.
I read after cycling 4-6 weeks and if all things look good.....that one of the 1st things added should be my cleanup crew along with a couple of fish maybe. I will add Live sand but the reef rocks are not live. I plan on a few plants too maybe.
My question is what should be the size of this cleanup crew to start off?
I've seen these cleanup crew packs offered and they seem like a lot.....especially with the crabs......here's an example of one of them, but it was for a 30 gl. tank....
any advice on the size it should be?
This 30 gallon reef clean up crew package will include:
10 Scarlet Reef Hermit Crabs
30 Blue Leg Hermit Crabs
20 Astrea Snails
2 Emerald Crabs
