the mental conflict over fish vs shrimp I'm having is the Sexy Shrimp possibly being consumed by a longnose Hawkfish. I didnt think it would be doable anyway, just because I've noticed how big the mouth of a LN Hawk is when they're 3ish inches, and the sexy shrimp stay rather small. But all in all, I was just wondering if adding crustaceans, letting them settle, and then adding fish would better, or by any means, insure the life of the crustaceans, rather then dropping them in and somebody thinking they are getting fed :-x
Also, the tank gets natural sunlight, since its straight across the way from our balcony, which we leave unshaded during the day, and also through the evening its right under a cieling light that we keep on most of the time. I just was't planning to add the PC on until closer to the end of the month.
