Inverts. Suggestion

[amixam98]

I'm starting up a 7 gallon bowfront nano as we speak. Need some suggestions on what to put in the tank. Heres what I'm thinking so far..

-Urchins?
-Starfish?
-Lobster?
-Sally crab?

If you plan to keep fish in the nano, the lobster might cause problems.

I will leave the urchin out becuase

1. it need to eat coraline alge (unless you have a lot of them already)
2. it may eat your soft coral when it can't get enough alge
3. It will knock down rocks.

I have 3 big rocks in there right now. I don't think the urchin will be able to knock it down. Domino is in there cycling the tank.

I would try to get as wide a variety of inverts as possible since you cant keep to many fish in a nano. maybe a good group of blue/scarlet hermits, emeralds, snails, a nudibranc or two and some porcillin and pom pom crabs for variety. that way you always have something moving around to watch
