Reefing newb
Ok so I finally have my 55gal all set up and completely cycled with 40# sand and 60#LR. For my first addition I added in a Strawberry Basslet last week along with 2 hermits. The LFS was pretty wiped out stock-wise from the holiday season so I wasnt able to really pick up anything else in terms of a CUC. On friday I was planning on stopping back in after they get their shipment to pick up a pair of clowns. The 2 clowns will be my only addition for a good while (probably 3 or 4 months).
So my question is what should I add in terms of a CUC for my tank with this bioload? I am thinking about just ordering from reefcleaners but their pre-made CUCs seem to be way too much IMO. I do want to add 3 more hermits (I love watching them!) then whatever snails are needed to help keep the sand bed stirred and glass clean. My real worry is about them starving since there is no alegea growing in the tank besides some coraline on the piece of LR I picked up from the LFS.
thoughts?
PS - I also have an in-tank refuge that I am going to load with some cheato and
add pods into. I uploaded a picture of the order I was thinking about getting
