WHAT?? That doesn't make any sense.
If your reef tank is already set up you should already have one snail per gallon of water and one hermit crab for every three gallons of water. Emerald crabs can also be a nice addition.

actually snails be carefull of them they can carry many different types of diseases salt snails dont reproduce like freshwater apple snails even if thy did your hermits will just rip them off the wall and eat them. as far as hermits only if you get the tiny blue leg or scarlets in a reef tank. hermits are oppertunistic eaters they eat meat and if given the opportunity they will eat your corals. the little reef crabs will not mess with corals but still may have to watch them with feather dusters or other tube worms. if your just looking for a good cleanup crew get lettuce nudis tiger tail cucumber tiger cowrys and queen conchs but all of these need a very mature tank the earleier 2 are toxic if they die in your tank and stay away from other more beutifull nudis as alot are specific to eat your corals

YES YOU CAN
3 OR 4 SNAILS IN ANY TANK IS ENOUGH
THEY BREED LIKE RABBITS
CRABS-THINK CAREFULLY ON THE TYPE OF FISH YOU HAVE AND THE SIZE OF THE TANK
