will this be overstocked?

We should put a pop up as soon as you enter the forum.
Please do not mention the T word in any setup under 120 gallons. If that is your intent keep it to yourself. Click OK to continue.

Just rememner urchin's like to rearrange loose rocks/corals, anything really. you'd be surprized what they can move. Mine seem to like picking up my poor snails and running around the tank with them helpless. =(
I wonder if any have died from being carried around and I didn't knock them off.

I have peppermints and have wanted to get a cleaner but I have read several posts that have said that cleaners often will go after and kill peppermints. Now of course there probably are plenty of people who havent experienced this but I have avoided adding additional shrimp because of it.

heh, if this tank is overstocked, mine is a mini Tokyo...

I don't even count my invertebrates when I think about stocking limits, unless they will blatantly fight.

I've got 4 cleaner's and 4 peppermint's living together. So far no problems with fighting, the peppermints are so nocturnal I only see them once or twice a week, but they always have egg clusters (as do the cleaners) so they can't be too stressed out.
