So kinda just an update on my tank but a huge mile stone for me! I finally added my first tank mates! I got 1 astrea snail (sry if i spelled it wrong) 1 blue leg hermit crab with a few extra shells and my first fish witch is a Swales Swissguard basselet. Im so happy.
Does any one have any experience with this fish that they can tell me or any pointers hes going in my 10 gallon aquarium.

I honestly don't know that much about them
 
We want pictures of your new friend.
 
Because you need at least 3 to thrive. I assume they are like land crabs. We have had those for 8 years.
 
They are really fun to watch.
 
Well i told the guy i want 1 one snail and 1 blue legged hermit to start off but i need a few empty shells for the crab to grow into.. Well two of those shells were not empty now i have 3 hermits

That's actually how I got my scarlet hermit. Grabbed some shells I assumed had snails in them, being stuck to the glass in the snail tank and all. Got home and saw his little red legs poking out. I'm a big fan of crabs, though personally not too big on the hermits.

Well im just worried that theres not enough food for the 3 of em in a beginning tank and i dont want them going for the snail or my coral.
 
Sorry it took so long but i didnt forget about showing you guys my new addition it just literally took this long for this guy to start swimming in the open. Hes very shy. But i call him nova. Sorry for the quality in advance.
