I’ve had my tank running for almost 3 months now. I did the original cycle with live sand, ammonium chloride/nitrifying bacteria, and then added a bunch of Gulf Live Rock about 2 weeks later to finish seeding. About a month after that I started adding CUC members. I’ve currently got:

1 Turbo
2 Trochus
2 Astraea
4 Cerith
1 Chocolate Chip Starfish

I’m doing FOWLR and looking at adding :

Pederson Cleaner Shrimp
Scarlet Skunk Cleaner
Peppermint Shrimp
Emerald Crab

Are all of these peaceful enough to be compatible? Am I able to just do one of each or should I add more? I do see a small bit of bubble algae popping up, there’s a big one on an Astraea shell!
 
Peppermint Shrimp can get pretty aggressive when hungry :eek: Got rid of them. They were taking swipes at my fish.
