Most entertaining reef safe invert?

[PuffersKick]

What is your most entertaining reef safe invert? I was looking to add some more interest to my tank. Right now I've got 2 cleaner shrimp (which I enjoy), 5 peppermints, 1 emerald crab and a whole bunch of different types of snails.

What is your favorite invert? Something that is fish and reef safe and is NOT an starfish? What are your suggestions?

sexy shrimp sound interesting. i find hermits entertaining, but then again i am a very sick person. ive always wanted a porcelain crab but i got one finally and it didnt make it so I dont have any empirical data for you. oh! sea hares ive heard are interesting but you have to be careful to cover any intakes.

We have a pair of Sexy Shrimp...they are very entertaining. It's also fun when my large emerald crab decides a blue leg hermit is in his way and throws him across the tank LOL

blood red fire shrimp

my mother in law had one of the fire shrimp, all he did was hide all the time. who else has had them, were yours more sociable?

I have two cleaner shrimp that attack/kill any peppermints i put in there. i would imagine it would be the same story with any other kind of shrimp.

i had a sally once, i hated it. it was neurotic, it attacked my fish, and then finally it got attacked by my coral banded shrimp and died. maybe someone has a nicer story

my octopus... o wait! not really reef safe

I love my sea hare. Fun to watch and always eating algea!

He is such a clown:lol:

I'm kind of partial to sea hares myself. I'm not sure I would trust an emerald crab and all those shrimp around one though.

i think cleaner shrimps are great, lots of personality and very curious. i love watching my sexy shrimp when i can find it, hehe. the sexy shrimp is always dancing. i have a porcelain crab, too, but i never see it all. my hermit crabs seem crazy, one will chase after the other one then they will be peaceful and roam together.

My Coral Banded Shrimp. even thought he is nocturnal.

The sexy shrimps are very cool. Hilarious the way they shake their butts
Fire shrimps are very cool too but they do like to hide quite a bit. But when they come out it just makes them that much more stunning.

My chocolate chip star is pretty mobile. He's definetly cool when his stomach comes popin out.

I've had every invert on this post. favorite are the cleaner shrimp. they will set p cleaning station and even try to clean your hand if you put it in the tank. Also, very cool are the red. purple and blue linkia stars.... you gotta get one of those

I was gonna make a new thread but I will just bring this one back to life....

Is there any other cool inverts that you guys know of

I like watching porcelain crabs, with their fans.

I just got a pom pom crab.

My wife described him as doing the hula. He's been in the rocks when I've looked for him, but apparently he is very fun to watch.

I've always dreamed of having a cuttlefish.

I have a queen conch that is mildly interesting....not as much as my cleaner shrimp though.

I was thinking about getting 1 or 2 of them for my 55 long...
but alot of people say you hardly ever see them
