What type of cleanup crew do you use for your reef?

I have had my tank set up for almost a year now, but within the last two months I have started to pick up some corals. I have a 14 gallon cube with some turbo snails, sand sifter snails, a peppermint shrimp, and some hermits. I was just wondering what everyone is using as a clean up crew on their reefs because I know some cleaners are not reef safe.
 
You are a bit limited in that sized tank...maybe stick to a couple more snails.

I have a wide variety of snails, hermits, sea cucumber, peppermint shrimp, cleaner shrimp.
 
Most snails are fine. the only defacto item that is not suitable for any cuc is the green brittle star. Filter-feeding sea cucumbers and sea apples are also not a good idea. Finally some people prefer tanks with no hermits or crabs...but this has more to do with preference.
