38 Gallon Questions

[KUDA]

I have had my 38 gallon tall setup for a while now. Currently, I have about 30-40 lbs of live rock and about a 2-3 inch deep live sand bed. As far as fish so far there is one firefish, one neon goby, and one scooter blenny. There are also a few hermits and probably about 20-30 nass snails. How many horses can I put in there? I think that I am going to get Erectus. What type of shrimp can go in with them? I wanted fire shrimp but I don't know if there would be any problems with them. I dont really want peps because I hear they can eat feather dusters, and I love feather dusters. Thanks in advance for any help.

2 pairs i think would do pretty good in the tank. not sure on the shrimp though

from seahorse.org

Grass Shrimp
Peppermint Shrimp
Rockpool Shrimp
Scarlet/Blood Shrimp
Skunk Cleaner Shrimp

any of those would be safe with seahorses

im staying away from shrimp until i see a real need. i have currently 4 nassarius snails, 2 scarlet reef hermit crabs, and just introduced (today) a red scooter blenny, and a purple firefish. Around mid may i'm planning to add 2 female seahorses.

i have 2 camel back shrimps with my 2 reidi. i also have a bigger feather duster which is in there. the horses dont bother the shrimp and the shrimp dont bother the duster. i also have about 20 hermits, and 20 snails ( diffrent types) in there.
