inverts

[daugherty]

I am trying to think of what would be a good selection for inverts for the new 75. i am think about 4 shrimp, a sea cucumber for the fuge if i get it to work. and may be a couple abalone and a emerald crab.
what do you guys think should i think of more

I think that would be a great place to start.You can always add more if you need to.But you dont to start with so many that they end up starving to death.

I thought that abalone get too large to be kept in an aquarium? Am I mistaken not really sure.

The abalone looks pretty interesting. I've never seen it before. Looks like it would be a cool addition to your tank.

I seen an abalone on Dirty Jobs once

Add them slowly to make sure they have enough food. just be aware that the sea cucumber has the potential to crash your tank if it dies. They release toxins when they die.
