    I don't think either of those have enough diversity.

    I would contact John at Reefcleaners.org from a custom clean up crew. He'll tell you what you need to keep the tank clean. Once he gives you a suggested CUC, you can add to it and customize it to your liking. His customer service is awesome!

    If you put turbos in there make sure all your coral is glued down to your LR. I put one in my 46 and removed him after I got tired of picking frags up off the sandbed every few days.

    You beat me to it. For that very reason I don't keep Turbo plus the fact they didn't live long.

    IME the turbo snails that I have had do a great job cleaning, I just don't like the fact that they're bulldozers :(
