Anyone need a cleanup crew?

In Memoriam
The six snails I currently have in my tank look lonely. Considering an order from Reeftopia or similar...anyone else need some stuff?
 
I could use some turbos and possibly some other things like a eyelash blenny and a couple peppermint shrimp and some nasarius vibex.

It would be nice to get in on some of these orders but with my schedule and having to run 30 to 50 miles to get it I am just better off paying the shipping myself. :(

If you were to supersize your cleaning crew order, I would be willing to buy some of the extra critters from you and foot my portion of the shipping.
 
I figure if there's a few people interested we should be able to meet the $120 easily. I'm looking for a few lettuce nudis myself @ $7 each. LA doesn't have any, otherwise I'd tag on there.

Reeftopia has a 4 for $24.00 deal on the lettuce nudis. I would be interested in one if you need three (few).

Other than that I could use some more snails, a couple crabs (bubble algae eater), maybe a shrimp, Large Single Polyp, maybe blenny (currently out of stock), somewhere around $20-$30 total.
 
Scott, do you have Bryopsis? These guys are pretty much specialized hair algae feeders. I've got some growing in the tank right now and harvested a bunch to start a farm so I can start breeding these guys again. I can supply Bryopsis if you need some, but otherwise they'll likely starve in short order in the tank...
 
No problem with hair algae (other than some hitchhikers from Jason's tank lol), just a couple bubble algae pods. The site that I was reading seemed to suggest that the lettuce nudis eat hair algae first, then gain sustenance from other algaes and detrus? Cool looking spec. but would hate to have it go hungry.
 
Can you guys take a look at the Reeftopia.com site and put together a number of what you actually want?

Here's what I'm tentatively planning on ordering:

100 cerith snails $75.00
4 lettuce nudis $24.00
1 dozen turbo snails $10.00
50 Nass. vibex $36.00
12 Nass. poly $15.00

I'm not 100% sure on the second set of Nassarius snails yet, and I'd be looking to split the Ceriths and Vibex with others. I'm estimating I'd like to keep 50 of the Cerith snails and 20-25 vibex, but I'm flexible.
 
I will split the vibex with you. I only want one nudibranch if you don't want all four. and then I just need 2 medium peppermint shrimp.
 
Bryan, I'll ask the same thing I asked Scott: do you have the algae to feed those nudis? They're pretty voracious eaters.
 
Can I join in? I was going to join in on the liveaquaria order but that doesn't seem to be going anywhere. I'll have to check out their website.
 
yes I do that is why I want one he has a job to do. I had a anthia die they dragged him into the rock I never saw him again and it knocked my system out of whack causing a hair algae bloom.
 
Make sure it's the right kind of hair algae as well! Aren't specific feeders fun?

Turbo snails would help clean up hair algae as well.

TJ, everyone is welcome to join is. If I get my 100g sump done this weekend i'll have enough room to spare to hold stuff anyway...for a small fee of course. ;)
 
Put me down for the following:

1 - Emerald Crab $5.00
8 - Cerith Snail $TBD
8 - Nassarius Vibex $TBD
May want to add 1 Peppermint Shrimp
May want to add an Eyelash Blenny (currently out of stock)
 
Those arent really turbo snails but astreas just so you know.
I'm looking for some mexican turbos myself.

When did you plan on ordering? I was thinking of getting some fighting conches and maybe a royal gramma.

I was thinking
2 fighting conches $6 each so $12
1 royal gramma $ 6
12 vibex $10

kass
