I’m upgrading to a 90 gallon and I have a few snails that’ll be transferring over once the new aquarium is ready
I’m wanting an assortment of snails that can be added now, the tank has been cycling 4 weeks and beginning to get a light brown dusting of algae and spots on the glass
What types of snails would be advised and how many ?
 
So with a cleanup crew I would always suggest half snails half hermits, for the glass algae nothing better than a turbo snail. Red legged hermits will heat a lot of algae to just make sure you have plenty of empty shells they change shells a lot. I would do 50 snails and 40 hermits for a 90 gallon the website I ordered all mine from is reefcleaners.com totally worth it.
