Hi all, I am setting up a fish-only tank, ultimately I'd like to have something along the lines of a dogface puffer, zebra moray, volitan and cowfish. Would you suggest a cleanup crew? If so, what? Should i just get a mess of small hermits and replenish them as they get chomped on?

You may want to try a star fish. Hermits are going to get eaten by the Zebra Eel or Puffer, unless they're very small. Then again there really isn't a reason to have a clean up in a Fowlr tank.

Also with the fish that you want you're going to have to feed them heavy, which will result in high nitrates, which most inverts don't like.
