i think you should wait for your tank to cycle before adding a clean up crew
I would think so too. I forgot to mention about the cycle.
But is it possible or will they just die?

I agree-it's also an issue of your clean up crew having enough to eat in a new tank.

This is what I'm thinking of getting. I will just put it in a seperate tank when I get them and put them in my new tank once it is ready.
It sucks though how I have to have a min order of $79
Emerald Crab
Sand Sifting Cucumber
Lettuce Nudibranch
2 Cleaner Clams
Copepods - Group of 200
Turbo/Astrea Snail - Group of 10
Nassarius Snail - Group of 10
Plant Combo, I would put these plants in the wet/dry filter with 20 watts of pc lighting

i wouldnt recommend the nudi or cleaner clams yet. the nudi will scrape a new, and even sometimes established tank, clean of algae and then starve. my lfs actually only rents them to people for algae problems. the cleaner clams are filter feeders, so if theyre just in unestablished water, they wont have anything else to eat. im not sure about the cucumber, but it would probably starve without an established sandbed too

Well I will put these in a estblished tank untill my new one is estblished.
The nudi is going to be in my aquapod first to get rid of some algae. Then I can transfer to my other tank so it can some other stuff.
The emerald crab is staying in my aquapod. I kind of got a bubble algae issue in there.
