I am starting a 14 gallon nano reef tank and I was wondering what I should get to clean up the tank. Any suggestions? I was just thinkin about the cleaner shrimp but i wanna know if there is any other options. Thanks

I've got a14 biocube with 8 snails one emerald crab and 4 hermit crabs. And honestly I need a few more snails also

Two or three trochus or turbo snails would be a good start. Maybe one scarlet hermit crab? A fully grown cleaner shrimp in a 14 gallon tank might be more trouble than it's worth though. I got rid of the one I had in my 20 gallon tank because it was constantly walking all over the corals, stealing food, etc. Just something to think about.
