I just tore down my 75G, and I'm getting a bunch of stuff to soup up my 20G Nano. I'm buying 20-25 of SWF.com's LS to get more diversity, and I'm thinking about getting the Keep It Clean package. It's not the Incredible Keep It Clean package, but just the regular old Keep It Clean package.

[*]20 Scarlet Reef Hermits
[*]20 Blueleg Hermits
[*]20 Turbo Snails
[*]5 Hawaiian Zebra Hermits
2 Brittle Stars
1 Coral Banded Shrimp
3 Emerald Crabs

I also plan on buying two Tank-Raised Common Clowns, and was wondering if I should get it all at the same time, or wait awhile to get the Clowns. It has cycled for around 4 mos., and all I have to do now is prepare it for SPS inhabitation. So let me know what you guys think about the Cleanup Crew and the LS.

Demo,
I'd get the fish first. I'd be concerned about starving alot of crabs and snails if you put all those scavengers into a relatively new tank. Maybe get the fish, wait a month or two then get your clean-up crew......maybe half the numbers you've shown for crabs and snails but I'd reverse the numbers and get more snails than crabs.
Of course, the LS is always a good idea!!

I figured I should get the CleanUp Crew first, considering the LR is covered in algae. It's an alga that I've never seen before. It is almost sponge-like. It is sort of like cyano, but it is completely transparent, with just a tinge of green. If anyone can identify this alga, please help me out in combatting it.
