I’m new here hello everybody I was just wondering if there were some great candidates for a few gym or even the crypt style something in the sump I wasn’t really thinking anything in the Some would be feasible considering it’s just live rock in there and it’s high flow, but I have a separated refugee and I was wondering if some great candidates might be some lettuce due to Bronx or urchins maybe a small tuxedo urchin or something the idea of being that if it mows down the hair LG, then it’ll just compound the effect of keeping the nutrients in the water for the coral to grow

I've heard of people keeping box and square crabs.. they rearrange rocks but they're too big. you could consider really whatever invert you wanna do just no shrimp. Tux urchin would be good so would. lettuce nudibranchs is also a good consideration.
