what is everyones preferred method to clean the glass inside the tank along the bottom to prevent to much sand from being riled up?
 
I clean the inside glass with a magnetic cleaner. I also have Nasarrius snails (3). They spend all day under the sand but when the lights go down, they all do laps around the tank cleaning the glass both above and below the sand line. I can tell in the morning by the perfect 1/2” wide trench in the sand bed all the way around the tank. LOL! My magnets never even have to get close to the sand bed
 
I use the flipper blade. I don't kick up much sand at all. The blenny comes by after and eats it, which kicks up sand
 
I have 5 Nasarrius in one tank and they don't do squat around the glass...

Plenty of other algae they can eat elsewhere..
They are kind of boring. All I ever see of mine are their siphons sticking up out of the sand.
