I am dealing with cyno and hair algae. I have decreased light and food and increased flow. I am just curious if I have enough clean up members. I think I'm good on snails, but could I use more hermit crabs?
14G Bio Cube
20 lbs of rock and 17 lbs of sand
5 nass
2 Astrea snails
1 Mexican turbo
1 bumble bee welk
2 scarlet crabs
1 emerald crad
1 cleaner shrimp
Thanks in advance for your insight,
Chris

I think your numbers look pretty good. You don't want to add too much or they starve each other out. Hermits are neat animals, but they arn't really necessary. I'd give your present guys a while to see if they can't get things in check.

you could add an abalone OR lettuce nudibranch - then when their job is through sell or trade to your LFS or friend.
