I wish I wasn't as disappointed as I am, but have to agree with the one other reviewer.
Pretty much everything arrived alive, was gently acclimated and survived the tank placement. But the starfish was quickly eaten by the cleaner shrimp, and I have lost at least 10 of the larger snails to that stupid cleaner shrimp - all of which happened in the first 4-5 days. I expected some of the hermit crabs to do them in over a few weeks, but not as quickly and certainly not the cleaner shrimp. I didn't even get any benefit from the starfish...
As far as the overall cleanup, it's been pretty borderline for my tank. Granted, I do have red hair algae that I've tried everything to get rid of, and was hoping possibly the Samoan conch along with some of the different kinds of snails to do something to it - and maybe that was expecting too much.
It was just unfortunate to spend $150 (with shipping) and not get much out of it overall, and for part of the package to enjoy its own escargot... I'm really bummed.
I would not recommend this product to my friends.
