Hi Folks,
I have a 6 gallon Nano with the following cleanup crew:
3 Astraea Snails
3 Scarlet Reef Hermit Crab
1 Bumble Bee Snail
5 Margarita Snails
1 Super Tongan Nassarius Snail
Is there anyway to expand or diversify this group?
What kind of shrimp would you recommend?
Whatever I add needs to be compatible with corals.
Thank You

those aren't peppermint shrimp.....those are cleaner shrimps....aka....skunk shrimp....those shrimp are great additions as well, the skunk in the picture will run about 15-25 depending on the store, and a peppermint will run around 2-5 dollars

also check out the fire shrimp...aka...blood shrimp....these are my favorite however they don't come out in the open as much as the cleaner shrimp....but they look great when you do see them....

I would say get one peppermint and choose one between cleaner and blood shrimp. pepermint can help you control aiptasia and the other will help clean your fish. (aside they're all good scavengers)
