Aquarium Advice Regular
I'll be setting up my first 75g fish-only (with Live Rock) aquarium after years of keeping freshwater.
Can anyone recommend the best/favorite tank cleaners to purchase (Shrimp, snails, etc.)?
I know I shouldn't add them all at once until their sufficent algae for them to munch on. But (1) how many to start? And (2) how many ultimately? I've seen some recommendation of a HUGE amount of cleaners in 75 gallon tank. (See http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/scateg.cfm?pCatId=420 ... Are those amounts really correct? That's a lot of critters!)
