Get 2/3 astrea snails and maybe a couple of nassarius snail Will clean up the diatoms in few days. Possibly the most efficient snails among CuC. I wouldn't go crazy for now since you need "algae" for cuc and without any bioload, there won't be much food for them. It baffles me when people suggest to put the full army of cuc right after cycle while there's not enough food to sustain their food source. So go slow and add as per as your tank's need. You will hear a lot of different opinions. Some love hermits while other hate them. Some don't like cuc at all and rely on bristle worms, pods and micro stars to do the job which will somehow get into you tank in due time.
