How many sand sifting starfish for a 135...

[Doc]

the nice thing is that sand stars do not count against bioload, while gobies do. they are just not pretty fish as compared to...say.... an Asfur Angelfish

Actually Doc, that's one of my least favorite angels. I think they're kinda ugly. <waits to be e-slapped>

 

[Doc]

"Ka-POW!!!" and "THWAP" and other 60's batman terms. You have been e-slapped. How dare you call that angel ugly? You need glasses. Pretty much every angel in that family ROCK!!! WAY better than some creepy goby!

I have one sand sifting star in my 90. He does a great job.

I would avoid cucumbers. I think I said that already in another post somewhere recently. They will crash your entire tank if they die. Which is what happened to me. I had one die in my 55. Nitrates spiked to 150+ for several months. Bye bye tank.

the ones i have bought that specify sand sifting cucumbers doesn't say there poisonous when they die and only cost a couple of bucks on different websites
Caribbean Sea Cucumber | Cucumbers | Corals & Invertebrates | Aquarium Livestock - ThatPetPlace.com

Black Cucumber | Cucumbers | Corals & Invertebrates | Aquarium Livestock - ThatPetPlace.com

White Sandsifting Cucumber | Cucumbers | Corals & Invertebrates | Aquarium Livestock - ThatPetPlace.com

in my 125 i have a one of each except black them i have 2 of
and 2 caribbean sandsifters cucumbers in my 29 and i have seen them die in my tank with no serious problems, i lost 3 in my 29 and that tanks is doing great.
