My tank has been up for about a month now. I tried to re-cycle it with some raw shrimp but my ammonia never got past 0.25 so I guess theres enough bacteria in my tank. Ammonia is now between 0.25 and 0, nitrites .01 and nitrates about 7.5 I think its a diatom bloom now, its reddish/brown algae covering everything so I think I can add my cleanup crew now. I was thinking about the following, does it look ok?
12 cerith snails
12 astrea snails
12 scarlet hermits
24 nassarius snails ( to keep the sandbed stirred
4 or 6 mythrax crabs ( I think these are emerald crabs)
Any feedback would be great.
