What would be a good clean up crew selection for my 160 gallon aquarium?
It is a FOWLR and I have and eel for now. Plan on getting Blue Hippo tang, Harlequin Tusk, maybe Lionfish, and some angel fish. Basically what could I get that wouldn't not become dinner to my other fishes?
 
Snails. Lots and Lots of Nassarius. Vibrex or Ebay has Ilyanassarius Obsoleta for cheap. You can read on them here: http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2006-11/mg/index.php and decide if you want that species or not. Reef Cleaners has the real deal for $0.40 a pop http://www.reefcleaners.org/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage_new.tpl&product_id=26&category_id=4&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=34 I have over 100 Obsoleta in my pred tank after 1 year and they do a great job. http://www.ebay.com/sch/ocean-reef-and-marine-coral-invertebrates/m.html?item=230828826523&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35be785f9b&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562

Extra large emerald crabs may survive. None of my aggressive fish ever went after the sand sifter starfish or the sea cucumber but a cuke can be risky.

Would a tessalata eel eat cleaner wrasses? said:
wrasses tend to burrow in the sand or between rocks. I would say if an eel can get to it when its hungry its going to try to eat it. [smilie=surprised.gif]
