Tiger tails are good but I'm not sure how deep the sand needs to be.

I don't think a sand bed of that depth coupled with the footprint of a 20 gallon tank would be optimal conditions for a cuke. I'd skip out.

I don't think a cuke is necessary in a 20g. You can get small conchs but they will grow. Some do grow quite fast but you won't have a problem selling them in the buy/sell forum after they've gotten too big.
