clean up crew question

[ben72227]

If i have a 30 gallon FOWLR tank, what would you recommend for a clean up crew?

Assuming you're not keeping triggers or puffers, then an assortment of snails and hermits would be good. The combinations are almost limitless, but here's an idea:
Astrea snails: 6
Trochus snails: 6
Cerith snails: 12
Nassarius snails: 12
Blue leg hermits: 12
Scarlet reef hermits: 6
Serpent star: 1
Emerald crab: 1

I like a large, relatively diverse, cleaning crew.

You can add to that list: Sally lightfoot crabs, Mini stars or the small brittle stars ( from www.ipsf.com ) And your cleaner shrimp.

oh - here's the fish i will be keeping:

2 (Pair) Ocellaris Clownfish
1 Banggai Cardinal
1 tiger pistol shrimp
1 Hi fin red banded goby

and i like mogurnda's idea of having a diverse clean-up crew, so any more combinations you can come up with?

with that line up of fish, i beleive you can add various types on inverts not saying you can add all of these, but here are a few that i like

pepermint shrimp
candy shrimp
arrowcrab
blood red fire shrimp(not sure if they eat deterious or not, but will clean your fish and are absolutely stunning)
orange linkia star
a sea urchin

thats about all i can think of for right now hehe
