    Steve,

    You think I should go ahead and order the clean up crew?
    I was thinking about ordering a big packages of 300-400 critters total.
    Varios Snails and Crabs and such.

    How big of a package did you start out with?

    Mike, from the pictures, I think you are still too early for the cleanup crew! Nothing for them to "clean" yet, and I doubt that your nitrogen cycle has really gotten going yet? Your lights should kick things into high gear

    ... but you did have some well established live rock that should help? Have you been testing Ammonia, Nitrite, & Nitrate? Any peeks?

    I started with about 120 turbos and 200 hermits - across all three tanks. I added these when the nitrogen cycle was nearly complete, and algae was COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTROL!
