As most of you know I am setting up a 18" cube mostly for a zoa garden and moving my duncan and sun corals into this tank as my cleaner shrimp keeps nicking the food from them.

I will be keeping a mixture of LPS SPS and some zoas Rics etc.

CUC will be 2 x halloween hermits (I Know these any Zoas by climbing on them)
Nass
Cereiths
Turbos

I dont want to keep blood shrimps or cleaner shrimps in here as they are a pain in my other tank what other options are there.

Discounted Camels Shrimps Dont these eat corals ?
Sexy Shrimps Nice Too small in this size tank
Discounted Harlequin Shrimps very nice but are nt there diets wholly star fish?
Pom Pom crabs I like the idea of these look like a good choice.

Have I missed any options out ?

Edited was nt clear enough ;)
 
Avoid the harlequins, unless willing to feed them live starfish regularly and add additional filtration to keep the nutrients lowbecause of their diet. Likewise the camels run the risk of feasting on yer zoas,etc....
Pom pom crab and a small group of sexies would be ideal but...or try the nocturnal and secretive peppermint shrimp as scavengers...they wont upset feeding corals |!|!
Porcelain crabs would also be safe as well...
 
I am leaning towards pom pom crabs since reading Jennybugs Edge journal.

I missed out I will be having 2 Flasher wrasse in there as well :)
