Inverts... title please... sel.  04/11/2008
Hello
<<Hi, Andrew today>>
I have a 72 gallon FOWLR tank.
My stocking list looks like this:
2 Ocellaris clowns
1 Blue-green Chromis
1 Royal Gramma
1 Neon goby
1 Yellow tang
1 Scott's fairy wrasse
1 Flame Angel
1 Black brittle star
2 cleaner shrimp
30 Nassarius snails
5 Cerith snails
I still have not purchased the wrasse or angel for my tank yet.
<<I would suggest you don't have anymore room for more fish>>
Fishwise my tank is pretty stocked and lately I've become interested in the inverts for my tank. I have been looking to add some but I am starting to get worried that I might overload the tank or worse off starve them to death as I do not like to overfeed my fish. I am looking to add 3 camel shrimp, an urchin (probably a pincushion) an emerald crab for my hair algae and a pink sandsifting cucumber. Would this be to much for my tank?
<<I would add all besides the cucumber, its personal preference, but i have seen too many tanks go bad because of an issue with these, and to me, its not worth the risk. With regards to feeding / bioload...Its all fine, you should not experience any issues>>
Thanks, Adam Law
<<Hope this helps, thanks for the questions. A Nixon>>
