CUC per 5 gal?

[RuGlu6]

I would say cuces are beneficial just make sure it is a tiger tail.

Not the black ones if black one dies it will wipe out all the fish in the tank except for the coris that hides in the sand and maybe mandarin that has protective coat that he can shed. happened to me ones a long time ago

That could be a difficult question, as for CUC bought from the LFS I have about 20-25 money cowrie, 10 hermits, a few nassarius, a conch, and 2 abalone, but do the abalone count as more than one since they're like 10 times the size of a cowrie? And what about hitchhikers, I have lots of asterina and stomatella and a few of my rocks look fuzzy from the (most likely) hundred micro brittle stars

few hermits and maybe 5 snails in spread out through ~200g. If I had sand probably a couple more snails.

Hmmm,
In my 45gal display 5xTurbo's at ~2" seems to be almost overkill (didn't realize they were that big until I opened up the box & looked at the bag), but then again I never need to worry about doing any live rock repositioning - they seem to do it for me

Now for the little critters:
- about 5-10 blue leg hermits - depends on whether they've been gobbled up by the Coral Banded, or not.
- I have now idea how many cowries & nassarius are in there, they seem to appear & disappear in the sand bed..
- There's still a few, maybe 5 Astreas, too
- Oh yeah, almost forgot the Sandsifting star

In the Fuge: Hermits, astera, cowries, nassarius

Ooops, almost forgot the Amazing, Incredible Aiptasia eating Peppermint Shrimp - one each in the display & fuge.
