Turbo snails, Margarita snails, Astriea snails....all work good for the glass.

I also use a mag float in the glass everytime I look at the tank. That keeps it from building up.

You really need to add your info in the hobby experience & current tank info.

Tank size, refuge...no refuge, ect..ect..ect.

This will help us when you have questions.
