Marine Invertebrates

[OJab]

Hi all, I'm looking into getting marine invertebrates such as: crabs, snails, Shrimps and anemones. I wanted to know what kind of supplements they require. How do I take care of them. Good Advice and suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Nems are considerably diff to keep than everything you have listed with it. I had two coral banded shrimp survive power outage for 4 days when water temp dropped considerably, I could have just gotten lucky too but I'd say most are fairly easy to keep and serve a nice function to system as well as some diversity. Many shrimp and crabs tend to hide a lot so if your looking for activity,may not be what your after. Some like the harly shrimp. Have specific diet to be mindful of. Check out reefcleaners.com or even live Aquaria for some info. I'm sure ton of sites exist though so google away

shrimp and crab supplements...hmmmm... i would think they need food and clean water. they are not photosynthetic the last time i checked.

anemone... right now by the relevance of your question it means you are not ready for one. they need a lot more care and a stable tank to survive.
