were those 80 cents a piece? I'd take 4 I guess. I probably don't need them but what the heck. I have exactly 1 cerith in my tank right now, and 1 blue legged hermit...from my old tank
On a side note, are their any good "damsels"? I almost bought 2 blue/yellow tailed damsels from Pet Supplies plus. I love their color, but do they terrorize other fish?

I think you'll be happy with a grand total of five Ceriths TJ. I have had two Turbos for the longest time then added 6 Margarita Snails. They do a good job on the glass and kept my HOB filter (now removed) cleaned. I don't have any specialized detritus feeders yet so... we'll see if there is a marked improvement. I am getting away from blue legged crabs and will not be replacing any of my 6 when they die. Mine used to clean my LR day and night. Lately they just hide most of the time.
As far as Damsels go PSP has the best prices in and out of town. I purchased an all yellow one there that did noting but hide under and tunnel under my LR. Always hid when anyone moved in the room. Finally got a clown which it had no problem coming out and biting. Now I just have the clown, a very friendly sociable fish. Wish I would have gotten a pair of yellow tailed blues but can't hold three fish yet.

Release the Kracken!
I had a little yellowtail blue damsel that came with my 150 when I got it. It attacked my hand everytime I put it in the tank.
I have nothing against damsels if you want a tank with like just damsels or clowns but they do get large and more territorial as they grow.
My jewel was fine for a cpl years with the fish that were already in the tank but when I added something new it wouldnt let them go anywhere near the rockwork. It also bit my tangs all the time.
It was so loud I could hear it when it did.
On another note I did used to have an all blue in my 55 that never bothered anything.
I had a tomato clown for 13 yrs in my 55 that killed many fish and was worse than any damsel I ever had lol but I have a tomato in my 150 that came with the tank and never bothered anything.
Anyway I'll prolly leave to come at 4:30 and get there around 8ish lol just kidding. Hope I can find it ok.

everything looks good except one of my peppermint shrimp was dead (and boy did that bag stink when I opened it). The royal gramma skidded across the water's surface and jumped out of the tank, but looks ok now.
It was nice to meet you Fred, and thanks again for taking care of the order.
