What's in YOUR fuge?

Just curious. I'm setting up a fuge, and I'm wondering what the majority of people keep in there. Mud, sand, rock, algae?

sand, macros, rock rubble, pods, various snails, various sand worms, and many filter feeders

Same here but with 2- pepperments also...

but like i said... thats just me.

Yea, I've read they will eat on pods... I had a healthy population of Aiptasia starting in the fuge so I decided to add a couple peps. I like them though. I have 2- in the fuge, 6- in the 110g and 5- in the 55g. I've read that they might nip at corals but I have not seen anything to indicate that is happening... of course they only come out at night so I don't get a chance to watch them much.

MY peppermints behave pretty well, My scralet cleaner shrimp digs into my zoos all the time looking for worms to eat & he usually gets them! Figures, I have the wierd shrimp.....
