Adding soft corals in with your clean up crew????

[Undertaker]

I am thinking about ordering my clean up crew online. However, the shipping cost is more than the crew. I also want to order some corals from the same place. I'm planning on doing a softie tank to start with and get a feel for reefin. Would it be ok to put soft corals in at the same time as my clean up crew??

Does your LFS not have a good selection? If you're thinking Reefcleaners, they have great stuff but they give you a TON of crew and it can be troublesome to keep them all alive unless you've got some serious algae in the tank.

I have 5 astrea snails and a conch in a 40B and they keep everything just about spotless other than the upper glass where the conch can't get to it.
