Any advice on where the best place to get a clean up crew right now? Mostly interested in snails.
Thanks

I've always used Reef Cleaners as well probably 8 orders so far and I've always been happy.

This most recent order last month, Most of my larger snails came covered in vermatid snails.

I'll be giving Dr. Reef's quarantined inverts a try next time.

I use ReefTopia for just gulf stuff. Prices and health are exceptional. They don't have as many things as other places, though.

I mostly use them because the peppermint shrimp always eat aiptasia and the emerald crabs destroy algae - they are the right kinds.

Reefcleaners as other have said are great and these guys.^^^^ been around forever, great prices and their shrimp and crabs are the legit kind.

Yes. I’ve ordered them from saltwater fish.com before but it was years ago. Doesn’t seem like they have the selection that they used to.

Agree have used Reef Cleaners for years - my last shipment wasn't that hot.

Reef cleaners is sub par. Their package and shipping is terrible with lots of DOA. Saltwateraquarium.com has been my go to now. Large inverts, very healthy and professional level packaging and shipping.

Reef Cleaners for me as well. Be sure to select sizes appropriately or put notes in about your tank size. I received a 5 inch Fighting Conch for my 15g nano. Fortunately I found a home for him quickly.

I always try LFS first, Best to have more than one type of snail. I use 5 or5 6 types of snails, they each target different things. Don't forgets sand sifting starfish, Urchins Shrimps and copepods Recently added Tiger Sand Conchs...I can see the trail they leave of cleaner sand.
