Alright, so I found a lady who has a 150 gallon tank shes looking to get rid of. The good thing is its only $80, so once I find a way to move this tank, its as good as mine. Unless I can fit it in the BMW

, but I dont think thats gonna work lol.
Well, heres some questions. This is a fish only, no reef. Im wondering if I can put some variations of larger crabs in this tank? I have a huge hermit in my 29g right now, and he only has a couple chunks taken out of his shell. Those chunks were taken out within the first day or two when I got him, so hes been ok with my puffer recently. Do you think larger snails would work, or maybe even some of those snails that stay in the sand?
I dont really get how fish only tanks work when you dont have a clean up crew. That may sound stupid, but it just doesnt add up. It seems like things will get out of hand.
Heres what I want in my tank, lets see if this adds up:
1
Porcupine Puffer (already have him)
1 Hummu Hummu Picasso
1 Foxface
1 Tomato (already have him)
1 LM Blenny (A larger one), to have SOME sort of clean up crew
Random larger hermits
A Couple inches of
Crushed Coral preferably. Though it may start out bare bottomed, and I'll see how I like that.
A bit of live rock, mainly a pile in the center, with some caves for my smaller like the tomato.
As for the lights, I can just use some Nova Extremes, which arent veyr pricey at all, especially since it will be fish only. The skimmer, Im not really too sure, thats where Im a little stumped. The only skimmer Ive had is my backpack on my 29g. That obviously wont work.
Let me know if thats overstocking the tank, or if Id have room for more if I wanted?
