Not really sure when I added the clean up crew but everything is still alive. I just added some sand shifting snails because it looks like there is yuk under it. I love my shrimp and I'm going to add a few more. They aren't as shy they come out when I walk near the tank. All my readings are great. I got my nitrates down. The only thing I'm not sure of is the live rock. How do you know if it's alive? I really haven't seen any changes in it except green algea. Once it's in the tank do you ever need to take it out to clean off the sand that gets on it from the clean up crew crawling all over it? My next purchase is a RO unit. Do you need to areate the water that you add everyday? After reading some of the other threads I was wondering.
