Shrimp-goby-banded. He doesn't sift sand like the Diamond ones, and hides mnost of the time. Now that he is in there I understand I can't add another.

That blasted, wandering, pain in the butt BTA. It finally found a place it likes, but its right in the middle of several of my other corals. Now it wants to sting everything. It's getting HUGE. To make matters worse, it doesn't even have a single bubble and my clowns ignore it like the thing has plague.
At least it has pretty colors and is healthy.

Either my fire shrimp because its a waste of 30 bucks if you ask me, you never see it. Although it did a lap around the tank today, and this morning it was on my feather duster. Other than that it stays in the back, middle, bottom of my tank. Worst place ever. But it is exciting when he comes out. Once a month that is. The other was a flame angel I added to my other tank that died from shock. Next time I will be more careful about the fish I pick out. That was my first and only death. *knocks on wood*

Always learning.

so what will be your alternative to the hermits?

I know the question wasn't addressed to me, but my alternative was three emerald crabs. They have a done a great job cleaning my tank. That and nassarius and cerith snails, and two cleaner shrimp is all I have in my 125 gallon tank and they keep in clean.
