Snails will always make a difference. A lot of people do not like them and will say they eat plants etc which isn't strictly true.

Snails will only eat dieing plants, dead fish/shrimp and generally clean up the algae/diatoms around the tank.
I put a large rock that was covered in algae into my tank ( mainly to hold the wood down ) and my crew of 5/6 ramshorn snails ( pink ones :D ) had it clean in a couple of days.

I've actually just ordered a few MTS to keep the sand clean, As I'm trying to keep this setup as natural as possible with little to no interference ( apart from water changes and the filter sponges )
