Looking for ideas for fish and inverts:
I’m setting up a 105L macro tank and am going for a natural look (like a cold water ocean style but in a warm water tank - so nothing too colourful). Lack of colour will need to be made up for by other interest factors.
Inverts and fish on the shortlist so far are barnacle blennies (for their fun personality), mini brittle stars (I find these fascinating and would add some movement to the tank) and a few hermit crabs (I love hermit crabs).
Would these be compatible 1) with each other 2) with macro algae (I have around 11 varieties and counting).
(I am also planning to add an emerald crab to a separate macro algae tank if anyone has experience of doing this and can tell me which ones the emerald destroyed).

I will be setting up a similar tank in a couple of weeks in a Red Sea Max Nano! It would be interesting to follow your progress as well..
