Question

cucumber question

i have a 4" DSB and my tank is about 3 months old now and i was thinking of getting a cucumber to help keep my bed clean . im just curious as to what the rest of you think about them and their ability to keep beds clean and if they are good to have how many would you suggest for a 65 gal. ? also do they count as a bio load and how much of one ?

I like the Tiger tail cucumbers. As far as I know they won't kill the tank if they die. Unlike some of their brethren.
