So I was wondering if this would be an adequate cleanup crew for my 60 Solana Cube that has been cycling for 27 days. I found a recommendation for reefcleaners.com and checked them out and this looks like it would be good for my sand substrate tank.
Since I have no live rock, and all of my LFS LR is infested with majano and aptasia and I refuse to buy from them, I was thinking of throwing in a bag of copepods to seed the tank. Would anything else be needed? Should I add some bristle worms? Sear Stars? I' not really sure what to add to help set the tank up. It will ultimately be a reef tank and will have corals before any fish are added if that makes a difference.

Shipped for free via Express Mail you will get: 74 Dwarf Ceriths - small cleaners that get to the nooks and crannies. Feed on diatoms, cyano, algal detritus, and film algae. Nocturnal cleaners that leave the sandbed at night to search for food. 20 Nassarius - scavengers that will eat leftover food and some fish waste. They will stir sand, but can also be kept in bare bottom tanks. 17 Florida Ceriths - small cleaners that get to the nooks and crannies. Feed on fine hair algae, diatoms, cyano, algal detritus, and film algae. Nocturnal cleaners that leave the sandbed at night to search for food. 16 Small to Medium Nerites - We are currently offering the longer lived and quite hardy Antillean Nerite. (Nerita fulgurans). It grows to a nice size,and consumes a good deal of diatoms, cyano, algal detritus, and film algae. It will also consume some fine hair algae. A nocturnal herbivore that will feed more often at night, they tend to need some time to adjust to the limitations of the aquarium during their first week. 15 Assorted Hermits - A mix of smaller to medium hermit crab species, including red legged, left-handed, jade, white claw and blue leg hermit crabs. A nice variety of empty shells for them to move into will be included. These hermits are omnivores, that will feed on leftover food, filamentous (hair) algae and some species of cyanobacteria (cyano). |
