    Since I don’t know much about preds. so I decided to go with fish I do know in a FOWLR (for now.) I know cleaners are hard to care for (usually) but I specifically said the African Cleaner Wrasse and I’ve for people that have kept them for 2½ years and still have them that they eat like pigs.

    +1, except if you do go with a sleeper goby (such as the Diamond), make sure the tank and sandbed are well established (at least 6 months) before adding.
