Im going to add more snails and crabs into my tank. Does it matter which I get. I have a 37 gallon tall tank.

So I’m going to buff my clean up crew. Does it matter which kind of snails and crabs I add into my tank.

I'd get a cleaner package from reefcleaners.org for a tank smaller than the one you have

What types of snails and crabs do you have? And how many?

I would be careful with emerald crabs. They have been known to eat corals

Trochus snails are great, they can right themselves if the fall on their backs and reproduce so you’ll never need to replace them. Nassarius snails keep the sand bed turned over and clean up leftover food and any organics in the sand. I prefer a mix of red and blue hermits. Emerald crab is always working on the algae on the rocks (try and get a female) and if you have alot of rock, tuxedo urchin is the best algae eater I have but they will eat coralline algae as well and pick up and carry around anything that isn’t glued down. I also like bumble bee snails to keep vermatid snails in check.
