Does anybody have a purple lobster? will they get along with a cbs? Also how many fish is too many in a 110? I have:
1 marine betta grouper (sm)
1 tomato clown (sm)
1 spotted hawkfish
1 snowflake eel
1 CBS
1 juvi queen angel
1 yellow tang
1 green carpet anemone
2 sally lightfoots
With about 60lbs of live rock
What kind of clean up crew could I get if I need one?
Thanks for the help

Did you say 1 crab or snail per gallon? What king of crabs and or snails? Most of my fish are small (under 3" ). Are star fish easy to take care of?

I have a CBS and no problems with the purple lobster (see my pic in the photography section!).
It's a nocturnal creature for the most part...hard to catch him out during the day when the lights are on. He's a wonderful scavanger, which is very advantageous in my reef tank.
SWF used to package them in one of their reef packages, but I think they're selling them solo now.
BTW, I like what blue hermits do to keep the tank clean...I also have 3 golf ball sized turbo snails that are algae eating mosters...of course they have a habit of knocking things over...
I ordered my clean up from SWF (except for the big snails)...I just went with basic scarlet, blue legs and a few snails from them.
