Hey guys,

I've got a 10 gallon fuge with 5 inch DSB and fern caulerpa almost everywhere. What's a suitable clean up crew to put in here that won't eat the plant (if there are any) ?

Actually, the question is, what's a good clean up crew that won't eat the plant or all the pods.

i think that if the fuge is working and running correctly, you should not need to have a clean up crew in there...

At most I'd add a handfull of cerinth and or nas snails to keep your sand bed stirred . You already have heaps of pods in there so they should keep it cleaned up well.

I threw a couple of hermits in mine with 2 nasarisus snails to keep the sand stirred. It seems to work for me. The hermits seem pretty good and picking up the various crap that falls into the fuge.
