Here is my idea for my first SW tank (FOWLR). Any suggestions?
1. Common clown, pink skunk clown, or percula clown X1
2. Bangaii cardinalfish X1
3. Some kind of pygmy angel, preferably an African flameback angel as the last addition
Inverts:
1.Cone shell hermit crab, up to three
2.Decorator crab X1
3.Emerald crab, up to three
4.Skunk cleaner shrimp, fire cleaner shrimp, or marbled shrimp X3
5.Turbo snails X3, spider conch X1, or tiger cowrie X1
6.Crimson knobbed starfish X1, chocolate chip starfish X2, or serpent star X1
7.Urchin, any kind except toxic sea urchin (maybe replace the snail(s) with one of these?)
As you can see I am focusing much of the tank on invertebrates. I really would like a spider conch but would it eat my other inverts? I have heard horror stories about that but I think they mainly focus on other mollusks and leave most crabs and stuff alone.:question:
