HI i have a 30 gallon tank and i have a small lion fish in it. What can i use to help keep the tank clean other than crabs or snails that my lion will not eat thanks

Snails are typically pretty safe, as are limpets. Lions typically only go after more mobile inverts,like shrimps and small crabs. Hermits might work--you could test them, anyway.

yea i tried the hermit crabs that what i had. The snails im not so sure about i tried them a long time ago and they only seemed to clean the glass. the algae i have a problem with is long green algea on the gravel and rocks.
