10

I think that's way too many emerald crabs. You should have maybe 4 or 5 for a 120. 20 emerald crabs will starve to death or fight each other to death.

I would add more peppermint shrimp -- 4 or 5 of those should be good.

Turbo and astraea snails are different. I would get 2 or 3 Mexican turbos, and about 20 astraea snails.

Cleaner clams...well the jury is still out on those. I've heard they don't live very long in our systems. Most people do not use them. They are not a normal member of CUCs.

You will need a lot more than 2 nassarius snails. I'd get at least 20.

A cleaner shrimp or two would be perfect.

I still wouldnt have that many turbos, they eat a ton and they can starve in systems with not enough food for them.

Ya, get a bunch of other snails but only a few turbos.
I like florida cerith snails.
I've never seen white hermits, but you could easily do 50 small blue legged hermits in your tank. Some people don't like hermits, but i never had a problem with the small blue legs.
And definitely get more peppermint shrimp like biff said. At least 3.

How long has your tank been running?

What about a brittle star? Those are good detritus eaters.

I agree go with less turbos and more cerith and nass..
A couple brittles would be fine just not green.. :sfish:
