Default Is 29g too small for reef and fish?

Here's what I've done in my 29 gallons:

I kinda went overboard with snails and crabs. Now I worry about their
not getting enough algae to eat. The glass is completely clean, which
I was not hoping for. I only have four fish and that is one more than
I intended. My will power failed when I saw a mandarin.

Agreed. I think that tank is full already.

You probably could double the number of snails and hermits though.
1 hermit per gallon, 1 snail per 2 gallon is not unheard of.



The hermits are very large, about the size of a quarter. If I can
catch the damsel he will go into another tank I have...........but
he's mighty quick.




Those are pretty...............when I get a bigger tank I want one too.
