snails for 25 gallon FOWL

[fishnut321]

hi, im about to make an order tonight and im still debating on my snails. I dont want any hermits, i find that all they do is kill snails. What and how many snails would you recommend for this tank? Preferably a species that will eat all forms of algae including hair algae and diatoms. Also whats a good all around carion/scavenger snail for my sand bed?

At the moment all i have is coraline algae , but i want to have a clean up crew that can handle anything that might spring up.

Thank you!!!

im looking at trocus and cerith right now

Astrea, turbos, trocus or cerith are all fine choices. Turbos generally are larger and will knock rock/frags around. But they do a good job with the tougher algeas imo. Hermits love cerith shells for some odd reason

As for "carion/scavenger snail for my sand bed?" Nassurius Snails will do the job. By far my favorite snails too.
