John Pryor is announcing the publication of a new review drawing on his wide-ranging expertise in saltwater aquarium care and maintenance. Pryor's new review seeks to shed light on the efficacy of Aquarium Depot's live [Clean It Up Crews](http://www.aquariumdepot.com/aquarium-life-salt/all-free-shipping-packages/clean-it-up-crews/), which are often made up of some combination of hermit crabs, snails and shrimp, among others.
Published and immediately available for review, [John Pryor's strength](http://cubiclefish.com/john-pryor-reviews-aquarium-depots-clean-up-crews/) and effectiveness analysis focused on four different packages and discusses the specific results he was able to generate in four of the countless tanks he maintains in both his home and his office. With the stated goal of including a detailed account of the kinds of crews most suitable for use in tanks of varying sizes and inhabitants, Pryor introduced the crews into the tanks most likely to contribute to the creation of a relatively wide spectrum.
I wanted to make sure that my review would benefit saltwater aquarists with tanks that range from very small to very large while also addressing the manner in which the 'Clean It Up Crews' interacted with the diverse inhabitants that occupy the different tanks I selected, said Pryor. The review is therefore able to offer some insight into so much more than the efficacy of the crews in cleaning the tanks, as it discusses the impact on behavior and biodiversity as well.
Pryor did note in his review that the hermit crabs, snails and the other various members of each crew were indeed quite effective in cleaning each of the different tanks in which they were introduced. In the review, Pryor states that several of his tanks had highly specific issues with algae that required a specific strategy for correction. In every case, according to Pryor, the Clean It Up Crews were able to successfully remove and prevent the presence of the algae within the tank.
I tried to make it quite clear in the review, but it is worth reiterating that the crews I ordered through Aquarium Depot bring so much more to the tank than added cleanliness, said Pryor. There is a real positive impact on biodiversity within the tank and I found the hermit crabs to be an especially interesting specimen.
