I am still waiting for my tank to cycle, but prepping up on what i am going to do afterwards. I am looking at the cleanup crew specials on this site and have a question...
I have been hearing that once my tank is cycled, the best thing to do is stock my tank very slowly. only one live thing a week is considered "best practice"
But if i get one of the cleanup crew specials, i would be adding up to 50-100 live things all at once...
since most of these living things are very small, i guess it shouldnt be much of a straign... or am i asking for alot of fall out and missery of waiting for my tank to settle down again after adding so many things at once that die off.
Or is it best to go to the LFS and get only a few things at a time.. 5 crabs one week.. two small shrimp next week, 5 more crabs week after, then a tang the following, etc....
thanks for all your help.
