I think so. Look at the maxi jet 400 or 600. 106/160 gph respectively. I think two mj 400s would be perfect and you could even put a hydor rotating head on one.
I have a 29g and my cleaners consist of 1 mexincan turbo who mows down algae on the rocks, glass and sand. 10 astraea snails that eat algae on rocks and glass mainly but move across the sand. 10 nassarius snails that shift the sand as they burrow but are scavengers. 10 blue leg hermits which shift the sand eating algae off of rocks and sand. 1 cleaner shrimp, scavenger. Finally 1 peppermint shrimp scavenger and carnivore as he attacks some of my snails and was responsible for killing 4 scarlet hermits. He doesn't mess with the blue legs but they have a bad rep for killing snails for their shells. I don't mind the food chain as I can easily replace my cleaners which looks like I'm going to have to do every few months or so.
