Colored angler compatibility

[Hp1836]

I have a colored angler fish in a small 10 gallon. He is doing very well. Looking for possibly clean up crew for his tank. Would an urchin be ok? I have a small pink lady urchin i am thinking about putting in the tank

You could try nerite snails.. Ox tounges

So the pink lady urchin is doing ok but does not do anything for algae. Stays off the rocks and glass completely. Stays entirely on the sand bed digging through it. It does a great job at keeping the sand clean though. I threw in a few astrea snails from another tank for the glass. May try a turbo snail or a small tuxedo urchin for the rocks but so far so good

That sounds good. What about chitons?

I have never tried them in all the years ive had reef tanks. What are their pros and cons? Also where do you get them? Never seen them at any lfs
