Cleanup Crew Bundle

Nature's maintenance team for a healthier aquarium. Every healthy aquarium has a team working behind the scenes. The Cleanup Crew Bundle combines five of the aquarium hobby's most trusted algae eaters and scavengers into one carefully selected package. Rather than relying on a single species, this bundle tackles multiple types of algae and leftover waste by combining animals that each specialize in cleaning different parts of your aquarium. From crystal-clear glass to cleaner substrate and healthier plants, every member of this bundle has a specific role to play. Whether you're setting up a new aquarium or looking to naturally reduce algae and maintenance in an established tank, this bundle makes it easy to build a balanced ecosystem without the guesswork. What You'll Receive You will receive: 1 Horned Nerite Snail 1 Zebra Nerite Snail 2 Siamese Algae Eaters 5 Amano Shrimp 2 Peppered Corydoras (11 animals total) Why We Built This Bundle No single animal can keep an aquarium clean. That's why we created a balanced team where every species contributes in a different way. Cleans algae from aquarium glass Removes algae from rocks, driftwood and decorations Helps control nuisance algae Scavenges leftover food before it becomes waste Continuously grazes on biofilm and organic debris Keeps the substrate active and cleaner Instead of buying algae eaters one at a time, you're creating a complete maintenance crew that works together every day. Meet Your Cleanup Crew Horned Nerite Snail The Window Washer An incredible algae grazer that specializes in keeping aquarium glass, rocks, and decorations clean. Zebra Nerite Snail The Hardscape Specialist Excellent at removing stubborn algae from driftwood, rocks, and other hard surfaces throughout the aquarium. One of our favorite features? Nerite snails do not reproduce in freshwater aquariums. While they may occasionally lay small white eggs, they cannot hatch without brackish water, meaning your aquarium won't become overrun with baby snails. Amano Shrimp (5) The Detail Crew Constantly grazing throughout the day, Amano Shrimp help clean plants, decorations, and tight spaces while consuming soft algae, biofilm, and leftover food that larger cleaners often miss. Siamese Algae Eaters (2) The Heavy Equipment Widely regarded as one of the best algae-eating fish in the hobby, Siamese Algae Eaters are especially effective against hair algae, black beard algae, and other nuisance algae that many cleanup crews ignore. Peppered Corydoras (2) The Ground Crew Friendly bottom dwellers that patrol the substrate in search of leftover food, helping reduce waste buildup while bringing constant activity and personality to the lower levels of the aquarium. Perfect For Community aquariums Planted aquariums Beginner hobbyists Established aquariums with algae New tank setups Freshwater tropical aquariums Natural algae control Low-maintenance aquarium enthusiasts Bundle Care Requirements Difficulty: Easy Experience Level: Beginner Friendly Aquarium Type: Freshwater Recommended Tank Size: 30 gallons or larger Water Temperature: 72–78°F Because this bundle contains multiple species, we recommend keeping them in a mature, well-established aquarium with stable water parameters and plenty of hiding places. A Natural Approach to Algae Control Every aquarium develops algae and organic waste over time. The Cleanup Crew Bundle helps restore balance by introducing species that naturally perform these jobs in freshwater ecosystems. While no cleanup crew eliminates the need for routine aquarium maintenance, this carefully selected combination can significantly reduce algae buildup, leftover food, and organic debris—helping you spend less time cleaning and more time enjoying your aquarium. Shipping Every animal is carefully inspected before shipment and packed using professional live-animal shipping methods to help ensure they arrive healthy and active. Because these are live animals, coloration, pattern, and size may naturally vary. Looking for Inspiration?

Why Buy From Shrimpy Business? At Shrimpy Business, we believe the best aquariums work with nature—not against it. Rather than selling individual algae eaters and expecting you to figure out what works together, we've assembled a balanced team of proven species that complement one another. Each member fills a different role, creating a healthier, cleaner aquarium through natural behaviors instead of chemicals or quick fixes. Whether you're starting fresh or reclaiming an algae-prone tank, the Cleanup Crew Bundle gives you a complete maintenance team that's ready to get to work.
