    For sandbeds, Sea Cucumbers are at the top of our list, they seem to just plain eat and eat.....and eat some more. Depending on the observer they may not be a coolest thing to look at but they do a tremedous job for us.
    Every electronic device is manufactured with smoke stored deep inside... only a true genius can find a way to set it free.

    I like the sea hare, however he has cleaned my tank of Algea, now I have to find more for him to eat. My sea cucumber rarely moves around the tank, he has a good spot where he is happy, but my bumblebee snails, turbo snails, astrea snails, margarita snails, and hermits keep the tank looking good.

    I'm with Dakar, however Nassaurus snails and conchs are great, too.
    There's nowhere else I'ld rather be... unless, of course, you're buying
