Clean up crew!

I'd be looking at the 75/90 gallon basic. Is that not too many quantity wise for a tank?
 
I can definitely see a price difference I'll be looking to order some in the next couple weeks
 
Which company ?

We love watching the crabs. When a piece of food drops to the bottom when feeding the fish, they come a runnin' ! lol
Also funny, when they find a larger shell to make a new home.
 
I like to start with a smaller crew and add as needed; my philosophy is if a smaller crew can handle what my tank needs then great, if not I can always get more. I want to be sure there's enough to support the critters and don't want any crabs (if you have them in your crew) getting too hungry and picking at corals. Lots of ways to do it but just my two cents. Happy reefing!
 
ATM in my 40B I have 1 Scarlet Hermit (the only Hermit Species I'll keep) 1 Strawberry Conch, used specifically to turn my sand bed, I supplement feed dried algae/wafers. 10 tiny Nassarius Snails and 1 Large Nassarius. 3 Bumble Snails and 3 Margarita Snails.
 
IMO no. Start your CUC small. Than add if needed. Most these lil creatures spend up to 16hrs daily just munching away, so you wanna make sure they have plenty to eat. :)
 
NanaReefer what would you recommend for a starter CUC for a 60G cube just after cycle is finished? I understand that I should add them before fish and want to start out small and build as I add fish and coral. My husband is really wanting a hermit crab and since I have no coral yet I suppose I will let him have his wish. What is the reason behind the choice of scarlet hermit?
