I have 2 turbo snails and a few misc crab hitchhikers w/ my LR. My snails are producing a good amount of waste, so I was wondering, what's next in the clean up crew?
Thanks

get more crabs, i brought home 22 hermits (for my 29gallon) when i saw my 11 snails were clean' the glass and messn up the sand, they will move the sand a little... eventually you could get close to 1 crab per gallon, snails too, what size tank do you have? 
thanks. Also, should I get more hermit crab shells? All my crabs are about half an inch long tops
More shells are always good. Keeps the hermits from assaulting the snails, and they seem to like exchanging them occasionally.
I'd suggest more snails, too. A mix of some of the following will be nice: ceriths, astreas, trochus, margaritas. 1 snail per 1-2 gallons will help keep algae at bay.
