i have a 72 gal bowfront system that has been running now for 2yrs and was FOWLR now i have zoos and some mushrooms and will soon put some xenia in as well currnently i only have about 20 hermits in the system along with a coral banded shrimp and a sand sifting star and a couple of those slug things that were hitchhikers on my LR i have no snails but am thinking about getting some i was told that the larger the cleanup crew the better since they will eliminate all the crap that will eventually become nitrates... is this true and what would you all reccommend the size and components of my cleaning army be now that i need to get a better control on my nitrates i have 100lbs of LR and 3" of sand a wet dry system with some macro algae in the sump fish load is within reccommended limits. im going to get about 20 turbos this afternoon and 20 more blue legs also is there any significant advantage between blue leg or scarlet hermits?
