This is my first thread, and I'm kind of a beginner. I have a fluval evo 13.5 with two blue-leg hermit crabs and a pistol shrimp, and I absolutely love the crabs. I love freshwater inverts too, and I'm looking for some more cool critters to stock my little nano reef with. Upgrading to a 75 gallon in about 6 months too, so anything that might grow medium-sized would be fine. I like seeing more unique invertebrates and fish and would love to stock my tank with them, plus the regulars. Show off your own little (or big) guys, and if you got any recommendations for me share them!
 
following! I've had fighting conchs that were fun (they don't really fight), some people get urchins, but they will move your stuff around. Be very careful with crabs. They are almost all opportunistic feeders, and will go after fish and coral if they get hungry.

Yeah haha, I’m lucky that my two little guys are satisfied with the algae in my tank!
