These are not good options for a 35g IMO. You won't have enough algae for a sea slug and the sea cucumber probably won't have enough food.


Some good options: Fromia starfish, Tamaria starfish, cleaner shrimp, feather dusters, pistol shrimp, tuxedo urchins, snails, or decorative crabs(Halloween hermits, scarlet hermits, ect.).

I like the blue porcelain crab, sexy shrimp, skunk cleaner shrimp, bumblebee snails, Nerite snails, trochus snails, Nassarius snails, emerald crab, trapezia crab. I avoid hermits since they are the bane of my existence

+1 Yah hermits kinda suck. but its an option.

Cukes will likely need more sand to forage than what you can offer. I like all of the snails and crabs from the keys... also trochus snails.

Zebra legs and blue legs are not very bad at killing snails as long as there are astrea shells laying around.
