    Default Clean up crew, which and how many?

    It seems my tank has settled down now, test readings show everything has settled down to acceptable levels. What I need to know is what clean up crew to get and how many to start off with? I kidnapped a couple of snails from someone at works 6 footer (can't stand the guy either!!) and they are valiantly trying to eat their way through the algae but they haven't got much of a chance to be honest (and they only appear to like the glass!).

    Any suggestions/comments would be appreciated.
