yeah I talked to another guy about and I plan on getting 15 turbo snails and 15 hermit crabs .. and i expect my blue hippo tang will eat off the bottom along with my yellow watchman goby .. does that sound good?

Hi Jam. :thinking: Do you already have the tang?

 

[jam1e]

no not yet .. I'm going to buy a juvenile (1-2 inches) then put him in my 90 gallon when it outgrows my 65 .. which will take about a year or two .. why do you ask?

 

[poniegirl]

Just because of tank size, which you have already seemed to have thought about.
I don't know that a 3 week tank can support a cleaning crew the size you are talking about. I don't have experience in that area. Sorry.
What is in your 90 now?

They are beautiful tanks, good for you

. The cleaning crew you have chosen should be great, Jam. Can't wait to see the progression!
