First, I'm wondering if I can't get opinions on the ideal number of crabs/snails for a 29 gallon tank, and if anyone can recommend particular species that seem to do a real good job. My biggest problem at the moment is brown algae (and yes, I'm doing everything I can to control it). I currently have a dozen hermit crabs (red leg, blue leg, zebras) and ten small snails (not sure of the species, but I know they're not turbos). Invariably, some of these guys just don't seem to work a whole lot, and others don't seem up to natural selection (they die off too easily). Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
