These snails have their work cut out for them. They won't go hungry.

Anyone have any recommendations on clean up crew size and type?

added a Chalk Basslet, a Tiger pistol shrimp and a Antennae Goby since my last post.

haven't seen the pistol since i dropped him in though. Hopefully him and the Goby pair up.
