    Default New to saltwater...coralife 29 gallon biocube....What fish???

    I have a coralife 29 gallon biocube. Coralife protein skimmer, heater, 20lbs base rock, 10lbs live rock, 2" live sb, intank media basket with filter floss, purigen, chemi pure elite. I was thinking about getting a false clown, yellow watchman goby/pistol shrimp, and maybe a purple firefish. If I got a pistol shrimp would I be able to keep other types of shrimp with it? Would that be the limit on the fish or could I getting maybe one more? Suggestions? What could I get for cuc, how many crabs or snails should i get or what kind should I get. What else works well for a cuc? Is there any starfish that would be good for my tank? What about a Porcelain Crab, anyone have any experience with those? I would also like to get some of the easier corals down the road. Any input or suggestions would be greatly appreciated !!

    Yes other shrimp can be kept with a pistol.
    Tail Spot would be fine.
    CUC can be made up of almost any scavenger. Mainly snails, others will recommend hermit crabs but not me-lol. If you do get one, get only 1.
    Porcelain crabs are cool but very elusive filter feeders.
    As for a Star Fish. Your tank is to young and small for most. Only one I can think of doing well would be the Brittle Star.
    Good luck and keep us posted. Remember to ask here first before you buy...could save you lots of $$ and heart ache
