I have a new cycled tank, I recently put a pair of clowns in and they seem to be very happy, I am feeding them a mix of Mysis shrimp and pellets.

Question is, would it be a good idea to add a few carnivorous snails right now? I don't have any algae yet so I don't plan to add any algae snails. Just want some ideas of some CUC I can add to a newly cycled tank if any at all.

If there's enough fish food reaching the bottom of the tank to give the snails something to eat, then you could add some carnivorous snails like Nassarius species, yeah.
