    right now all i have in my fuge is about 4 inches of kitty litter and about 2 inches of dead sand, and some LR rubble. it is a 10 gallon tank. i am gonna add some chateo to it in the future. I was wondering if I could add a small clown goby to my fuge and maybe a couple sexy shrimp. My fuge is not under my tank because my DT is on my dresser lol so i spend a lot of time looking at it... so do you think this would work out ok? What other inverts would be cool for a fuge?

    Mantis Shrimp. Though the are not not shrimp at all but Stomatopods.
    Patricks avatar is a peacock mantis. They need a tank of their own because they will kill and eat most anything in the tank with them. I have a Havanensis.
