inverts & bioload

[saltcreep1025]

how do inverts affect (or is it effect?) the bioload?

I enjoy watching them as much as the fish and want to get a bunch! what would u suggest the max is for a 35g tank?

IMO, inverts have very little effect on the bioload, and some of your mobile inverts have a great impact reducing the bioload When I'm figuring bioload, I don't count them.

ok, so i can pretty much get as many as i want to?

Within reason yes. You want to give them room, if they kill each other, they contribute heavily to the bioload as they decay
