I have made a few posts about my system which is a little unique. It’s a 135 mixed reef filtered by canisters, with a 35g cube display refugium plumbed in. I’m looking for some interesting inverts for the display fuge.

Currently it houses two clowns and a ORA mandarin. Along with 5 sexy shrimp, trocus nassarius and cerith snails, two strawberry conchs, blue legged hermits, and two Pom Pom crabs (I believe are still alive but haven’t seen them in a few weeks).

It is pretty densely planted with macros so I understand I won’t always see things and I’m okay with that. I’m just looking for unique/interesting inverts that will do well in a tank that size with those other inhabitants.

I like sponges, sea apples & flame scallops

I actually do have some orange ruffle sponges that are doing okay. I would get some others if my lfs got some nice ones in. Sea apples scare me lol I’m afraid of nuking my tank. But they do look nice. Scallops could be interesting.
