    Default Cleanup Crew Advice

    Any suggestions for a good mix? Should hermit crabs or the zebra micro hermits be part of the mix? Should I go 100% snails? Currently I only have a few snails and they are not keeping up by any means. This is for a 75 gal tank with a variety of corals.

    Mixture of snails: Turbos, Cerith, Nassarius (sp?)
    I like the small zebra hermits - the bigger ones will munch down on your snails.

    The small blue legs are good too. The best hair algae eater I ever had were some Mexican dwarf red legs I got from GARF.

    I really like the dwarf zebra hermits, I think your snails will be fine as long as you have extras hells for the hermits to test out.
