    Default 1.5 gallon pico stocking

    hey guys, well i got bored today and went to this ghetto beach buy my house. I found a bunch of LR rubble and a few pieces of LR. I cleaned it, grabbed some "sand" aka mud, and Oh hey there a little shell running down buy my feet. It's a little hermit crab. All white , in a 1/2 inch shell. Really cute lol. so i grabbed him, and 3 small cerith snails and was on my my home. I popped in two small ghost shrimp as well. What am I looking at for stocking? i was thinking 1 each of a blue leg hermit, a red leg hermit, an astrea snail, and maybe 2 or three more small ceriths. is that overload? is there any fish i might be able to get? btw i have a power head on there. Obviously i will remove the shrimp if necessary.

    they should be fine as they are all part of a clean up crew. just make sure you don't stave them

    for a tank that small, I would go with diff types of gobies, hawkfish are good, 6 line wrasse is an awesome fish, you dont want more than 2 fish and that is a stretch too. I wold almost stick with a single fish. 6 line wrasse is awesome, good color and is allways cruising around the tank

    you could keep (like Greg said) 1 MAYBE 2 fish. they would have to be small fish though. also like Greg said ... the 6 line wrasse is way cool !!
