CUC for 330Gallon

[KingAlee]

I’m needing a reef safe clean up crew… that being said it’s for a 330Gallon tank so I would need one big enough and thats efficient as I plan on loading it down.

I don’t know if the foot print matters but it’s a 7ft x 3ft x 2ft tank. I would look for the most cost effective solution here!

Reef cleaners if no local deals. Where are you located.

Mobile, I was just curious about like quantity and what different species should I get

Bunch of trochus. Maybe they will breed. Re: conches, I would probaby get many of the smaller ones on ReefCleaners (assorted smaller conch or strawberry conch). They put in work and get around easily. Bunch of Nassarius vibex. Maybe a bunch of ceriths, depending on what wrasses you get.

What are you stocking?

I haven’t fully figured out what I’m stocking yet. I currently have a 125Gallon but nothing like this, I just want vibrancy and a good amount of fish, maybe some schooling.

Probably looking at anthias and chromis for schooling, then, right? Wrasses are more difficult to put into a social structure (harems), but some on here like OrionN have been able to mix wrasses of the same species in his big tank. Note that some Halichoeres wrasses and maybe leopard and tamarin wrasses will target snails, particularly ceriths and nerites. My trochus have been pretty resilient with wrasses. If you get any Coris, Thalassoma or other larger wrasses, CUC are toast. That goes for peppermints as well.

I also like money cowries, which can be rather long-lived.
