    Snails and shrimp are the cleanup crew of a natural tank. They graze algae and biofilm, eat leftover food and keep the sand turning over.

    • Snails: algae grazers and burrowers that stir the sand cap
    • Shrimp: colorful scavengers that pick over plants and leaf litter
    • At home with live plants, leaf litter and microfauna

    The Father Fish way: add your cleanup crew once plants are growing and the tank has matured, so there's biofilm for them to graze.
