I no longer have a puffer to terrorize my inverts, so I'm looking to expand my CUC again!

Not totally set on things but I'm looking for:

10-20 Blueleg Hermit Crabs
5-10 Cerith snails
3-5 nassarius snails
maybe a brittle star(or multiple small ones)
???

Open to other suggestions. My main tank issues are cyano and GHA so if you have something tried and true, feel free to send them my way :p I'd love a sea hare, but I'm not looking to deal with the hassle of rehoming it in a week.

Order from KP Aquatics or Reefcleaners. hobbyists don’t generally sell CuC unless you happen to find one there breaking down theor whole tank for sale.

Considering it.. I was hoping to buy local since online requires like $40+ for shipping and LFS charge around $2 per, so neither is much of a deal lol

reef cleaners sells packs for cheap that include shipping. they don’t charge $40 for shipping.
somehow I missed that point lol.. I wanted a bunch of specifics that they were out of stock though.. Ended up just sucking it up and grabbing a bunch of stuff from the LFS, got 25% off for buying 'bulk' so I 'll take it :p

I am starting to QT inverts now. I will have a constant supply of fishless, 76 day quarantined inverts in the near future. The plan is to have inverts coming out of QT in batches every two weeks.

I currently have blue leg hermits, cleaner shrimp, emerald crabs and some nassarius snails in QT. The emerald crabs are actually ready to come out of QT and be sold.

Round two starting this week will be peppermint shrimp, other snails and possible some more specialized hermit crabs like hollowness and electric blues.
