I have a Scribbled Rabbit, a few Cerith Snails, a few Nassarius, a bunch of Stomatella in my frag tank. I plan to add a 6 Lined Wrasse to the mix. Also I'll be breaking down and combining a 46 and 75 into a 200 deep dimension. There's fish in each, that won't mix, so I'll be adding a Lawnmower Blenny or Starry Blenny to the frag tank.

hard to beat a small army of red legged hermits, they will eat any type of algae and do a marvelous job, snails imho are just a waste

I personally am a big fan of nassarius sp. snails as the main crew as well as a good mix of cerith, mexican turbos(I know they move stuff, but they eat like no other), astrea, margaritas, red leg and blue leg hermits, and a good collection of emerald crabs. I also throw in one sally light foot per tank and if algae ever gets out of control I throw a tiger cowry in(mainly to keep my macro tanks under control).


I think that a good mix is the only way to keep things really clean. The more critters the better!

I agree with the tomini tang. They eat diatoms and love hair algae.
