I spent 200 dollars on snails and crabs but theres not many left lol I'm wondering if I can try coral again when my tank almost crashed I lost everything including 7 bubble tip anemones and colony of zoas all thrived before the huge down fall one reason for the almost crashing part is I only had one pump running at the time stupid mistake on my part I was suppose to have both running but I didnt hook the other one back up for no reason but now its circulating a lot of water and looks better quality
