Best cuc for uneaten food in a new tank.

[glb]

Hi everyone. I have a new 40g fowlr without lights at this point (lights and coral come later). The only thing a cuc would have to eat is fish food, as I have no algae. I was thinking a few sexy shrimp. Would that work?

Thanks. I just don't want them to starve. Will a nassarus snail eat food off the sand and the rock?
