I have a ten gallon tank, and want to stock it up with some snails, what snails would do best with just corals in a 10 gallon? Preferably the ones that eat most algae, and are very hardy.
 
+1 for trochus. If you have a sandbed I would also add some dwarf and Florida ceriths.

All of the snails above are good ones for a nano. Some snails live on rocks, some on sand and some like to crawl out of the tank.
 
I have Banded Trochus and Astrea snails in my Nuvo 10. Both species are all over my glass, rocks and substrate, and doing a great job.
