65 gallon tank

Copepods will take out the diatoms over time, don't worry about them.

No panic at all here, just sharing my thoughts, tank was completely sterile a week ago beyond the seeded bio media in the sump. So I didn’t wanna have cuc starving to death making me slow to add them. I feel I can now add a good bit more without that concern.

i can donate 3 hermits to the cause if I can find them, and some dwarf ceriths.

Diatoms typiically fade though, and I would venture to say that diatoms are one of the most benign algaes you can have. They occupy space that otherwise might get infested with other algaes

I won't object if you have extra, my main tank has a full clean up crew, grow out tank can use a few more. 65 gallon is a step above nil. I'll definitely be ramping up the amount in it soon.

Please don’t give them to me if you need them. I made a order in the group buy for 4 peppermint shrimp and 2 pithos carbs. So those will help too. 2 shrimp for the 65 and 1 for each of the other tanks. 2 crabs are for the grow out tank.

If you could spare them, i can grab them at cfm so no rush.
