I just set up a 90g tank with 130lbs of LR and made it barebottom (And of course I will wait for the tank to cycle before adding a CUC).

I have set up a few tanks in the past and been successful but this time I am setting this tank up as a barebottom and this is a first for me. I plan on doing a mixed reef with SPS being the majority.

Question: What type of cleanup crew should I use for a barebottom reef......only snails, crabs and snails, brittle stars too?
What have you done in the past and been successful with?
 
In my 90g BB I just had snails. I never put crabs in my tanks, honestly, I never have much of a CUC...but my 90g BB tank rocked, loved that system.
