What do you suggest I should get for a 29 gallon tank? I was thinking I was going to get blue/red legged hermit crabs and some turbo snails-- how many of each do you think I should get? Any other recommendations on things I should get? My current plans are a yellow tailed damsel- Firefish- 2 occilaris clowns - and maybe eventually a dwarf bi-color angel if thats not too crowded- I also want a Bicolor Pseudochromis but I'm pushing it already so I'll see what I end up with when I decide what I want.

Thanks for any help!!!
 
Is your tank a FOWLR tank or Fish Only?

Yellow-tail blue damsels like company of their own kind, so a minimum of 3 there imho.

A royal gramma is a bit less pugnacious than the bicolor pseudochromis and similar in color scheme.

Regardless of that, you should be able to put all the fish you want with no problems.
 
A decent mix of snails should serve the purpose well. Shoot for ceriths, some nsassarius, Astrea, Stomatella, and Trochus. Of course, the worms that come with your live rock are also a great clean-up crew.

If you opt for damsels, yellowtail damsels also do just fine singly. I advise against a bicolor angelfish for a number of reasons.

it's with live rock- I already have it in there and it's cycling -- that sounds good I'll look in the gramma. -- any cleanup crew suggestions???

blue legged hermit crabs work very well, for a 29gallon u should get about 20 of them with maybe a cleaner shrimp and some snails.
