Hey everyone I just got my clean-up crew order in from SWF.com. So here it is tell me what you think: 10 blue leg hermits, 10 scarlet hermits, 20 turbo snails, 1 queen conch, 1 pepermint shrimp, 1 camel back shimp, and 1 pistol shimp. Thats going in the 46 gal bow front for now, So what do you guys think? Everything appears to be healthy and the shipping was great.

Isnt it great to buy yourself stuff. I like it. Just make sure you feed them cause although they like crap sometimes you have to give them some of the good stuff. Make sure the conch has plenty of algae around. Dont even try to pick up the pistol with your bare hands, it will put a hurting on you. Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!;) ;) ;)

Yeah I would'nt pick any of my shrimp with my bare hands. I have a huge at least 5" CBS that i had to move over to another tanks so I could put the new ones in the 46 gal and have them live in piece. I was worried that the CBS would kill them off and probably would have if I would have left him in there. I really wish I had a dig camera so i could post a pick of him. He is the biggest CBS I have ever seen and he has a blue belly and a little green on him too. Does anyone know why the coral banded shrimp have blue and green bellys. The LFS store told me thats how I can he's happy, is this true. :D

I think it just means he's fat :D Mine has it too, especially after it molts...when it grows inthe dark...creepy little/big thing. It's eerily large. I keep thinking "Ah, it's bound to die soon, I think there's only a certain amount of times they can molt before they kick the bucket." and he does it *constantly* At least twice a month.
