Flat tank (5 quart)
4, 1" Flounder

6 Gal
1, 2" Mangrove Red Snapper
1, 1" Astraea Conehead Snail,
1, 1.25" Cerith Snail (I think that is what it is. It burrows into the sand and I never see it until I uncover it, but it doesn't take long for it to move so its buried.)
2 unknown snails (Nassarius Snails, I think) that lay eggs everywhere, and cruse the tank (always moving and and pretty fast for a snail)
3 others that I think are Margarita Snail (nerite).
Plus 2 (Size of a dime) Blue Leg Hermit Crabs and 2 smaller hermit crabs. They are in shells that look like MTS but white.

1, 3" Target Fish (3 died over 1.5 years ago)
3, 6" Arius seemani, Silver Shark Catfish

Fish that have past on
4, 4"- 5" Needle Fish (died, cause; heat power outage during the summer. Water Temp 86°. They were gasping as I was throwing bags of ice in the tank. :( )
2, 2.5" Marble Sleeper One attacked the other then the other couldn't compete for food other fish ate the food before it would float infront of the sleeper)
5, 1.25"- 1.5" Bumble Bee Gobies (Yes, that's a correct measurement, all disappeared food for other fish? had them for 2.5 years before they disappeared. I suspect the Dat)

2, 3" Knight Gobies (deterioration disease, they started looking rough and went down hill from there. I have seen this happen at the LFS)
