I started a 10 gallon refugium with some macroalgae, Marco rock live rock rubble, and pods.
I want a little clean up crew to keep the walls of tank clean and perhaps control the detritus.
What would you suggest, if anything?

Thanks!
 
Snails are always a good option.

Is this your only tank?

I have another 10 gallon.
What type of snails would be best?
Astrea, nerite, trochus, cerith come to mind. Check out the ReefCleaners website, They specialize in CUC critters and even if you don't buy from them, they have a great description of what each animal eats and does for your tank.

Good luck!
