Hermits are fine in the water 24/7. I have some blue legged hermits and they have been going for over 18 months no problems. Remeber with hermits they grow, so you need to provide larger shells for them to live in as they grow.

Humbugs are not compatable with anything. They a cute when small, but grow fast and dominate any tank. Talke with JetSkiSteve and Adam on this board, they have been trying to get one out of a tank for weeks. Horrid fish, best avoided.

Clownfish, pretty much compatible with anything that won't eat them. If you want to provide and anemone for them, do your reading, Anemones can be tuff to keep of you don't know how to care for them.

Good luck.
