I've done some research, but nothing explains this very clearly (or maybe I'm just stupid).
I am finally getting serious about buying a 70 gallon FOWLR (have 30 gal FO right now) I plan on a Berlin protien skimmer, 3 watts per gallon of lighting (PC and VHO) and 60-70lbs liverock. For substrate CaribSea aragonite sand seeded with Natures Ocean livesand from this site. I do not want a DSB, just a 1/2" or 1" for looks - Nature's ocean does not have critters, I hear, so QUESTION: Do I absolutly need something to stir my sand? I will have a clean up crew of crabs, snails, and shrimps, but do I need like a cucumber or starfish or anything??
Please help, I'm trying to price everything out! If I did not give enough tank details, please inform me.
