If your cycle is finishing up then go ahead and add the cleanup crew... i like a couple nassarius sp. snails for the sand, a couple cerith and astrea snails for the rock and glass and a couple blue leg hermits. for a 15H, probably 4 large nassarius, 2-3 astreas, 2-3 ceriths, 3-4 blue legs.

why not some small nassarius 3 maybe ... astreas great cleaner....also there are alot of options on hermits there are blue legs, scarlet (red legs) , electric blue etc..... dont mix blue with red one kind will eventually domane on the tank.....
my blue legs killed all my scarlets :cry: :cry: and i used to like more my scarlets..... my opinion only....
have you decided in wich fish yet??? .... do alot of research before buying anything cuase some are really hard to keep... but the guys here will help you with that when you decided in wich ones.....(but dont rush just like skipm said wait a week between anything you add for better results).

I WAS THINKING MAYBE A YELLOW WATHCHMAN GOBY AND A SIX LINE WRASSE.
I THINK THAT IS ALL I AM GOING TO PUT AS FAR AS FISH.
DO YA'LL THINK THAT IS GOOD?
I AM GOING TO GET CLEANING CREW TUES OR WED
THEN WAIT A WEEK OR MORE TO GET THE FISH.
SHOULDI GET BOTH FISH AT ONCE OR GET ONE THEN WAIT A WEEK?
MY LIGHT SHOULD BE COMING IN WED.
I AM GOING TO TRY SOME PICS BUT HAVE NOT FIGURED HOW TO DO IT YET

yeah you should add your cleaning crew (lighting not needed) and wait a week and then one fish and then wait another week and last fish so everything works great and no nitrate or amonia swings... and i think that pair will look great a swimmer and a sand shifter and yellow watchman are really funny to look but they are almost in their favorite cave all the time and also if you can pair him with a pistol shrimp they will be really cute together.

if is a 15 galong tank yeah plenty space for them i mentioned the pistol cause they pair really well with the goby and look amazing they are like the perfect couple and about the six line yeah cause all of them are peaceful and easy to care of.
and if you like you can even add a cleaner shrimp & some sexy shrimps but remember really slow and with intervals of 1 week.... invertebrates dont produce alot of waste like fish and they can even help with detrious......

p.s: this is my favorite pistol available in the LFS i want one for my yellow watchman goby but this little fellows run about $20-25 tooo much in my opinion but eventually ill get one cause they are cute

hey Erik i just got one but he keeps hidding he made a hole and he has been there since... so my question is yours hide alot to do you see them alot or not or do you think having more in my 12g ill be able to see them more or something and another thing... it was funny cause 2 days later i was hearing a noise like someone was nocking on the glass or like a shell nocking the glass and i was a manty cause i read something about them that if you hear that ... that means that you have a manty and i got worry then i search on pistols and i was ssssstupid they make the same sound so anyways is really funny to hear that the only thing is that at night time bugs me :evil: anyways weird sound......
