Sorry, been busy around here. I response to your question, I've had a saltater tank for 10 months. Currently, it's a 5 gallon bowfront, fish only with live rock. I have half the lighting for a reef, but not the money to get corals once I get the rest of the lighting, so I'm putting it off until I can get a job to support my hobby. As for the shell dwellers, N. Multifascius is the second smallest species of shellies that I know of. They max out under 2" and will happily form a huge family fairly quickly. Here's a couple links for yeah to look at.

Those were 3 I found quite intersting, back in the day when I was deeply consitering getting some for myself. Unfortunitally, times change, and now I have apistos instead. I'd say, if you do your research, and understand what needs to be done with a saltwater tank to keep it healthy, go for it, but don't jump in without the correct knowledge in that department. I'll go against everything everyone else has said, and send you a couple links that will help you with the beginning of your search. Just be sure you really want to do this before you start, its a lot of money to put out on something, only to decide you don't like it.

For the record: You Rock!
I should be getting the tank around mid june (i get my new job, great pay, the 16th). So it will be around that time I make my final choice. Im researching a lot of options and even thinking about buying another slightly large tank. My room is getting stuffy but i have another wall I can fill. Hehehe.
